Four to six month deployments, three to four months between deployments. Pay is good but this is not a traditional flying job and is not recognized as such. If you don't mind deploying this is not a bad job, but won't further your manned flying career. As a matter of fact, it will slow your career progession because you are not in the cockpit, just like your current job. It pays enough to supplement the slave wages an entry level flying job pays if you are able to fly between deployments and if you can find an employer that will allow you to deploy, which is what I am currently doing.
