IT only moderately sucks to other jobs. IT for example is harmless to cooking jobs.
Yes, it can be stressfull, but other jobs can be also. Make sure that you have a passage in your contract that allows you to compensate overtime with paid vacation, then it's not as bad.
IT jobs can be quite nice, if you also have lot's of contact in your job to people outside of your usual IT contacts (IT-PL, BA, Developers). Those people think you are a magician when you do black magic tricks (for example a pivot table) with their outlook sheets, and invite you to their department parties.
