If you want a easy job with decent pay and want to coast, it’s not a bad option

Depends on your own career objectives. I'm on the architecture track and it is seen as realtively prestigious and you have a lot of influence on implementation programmes but the progression is slower and at higher levels i believe the comp is less as there is typically not much of a sales dimension. If you like tech and want to be a "technical" leader it's a good way to go.
