Unless you're working for a very large company which has on-site staff around the clock, you are working in a sense all the time since you can always be paged or called when there is a problem. Also, you will almost certainly be doing tons of middle-of-the-night and weekend work since you can't work on production servers during business hours. If you are interested in steady hours with little overtime Unix is NOT for you.
Salary varies widely. When I started about 10 years ago entry level unix admin jobs were in the 50-70k range. It is a fairly well-paying field and finding jobs is not terribly hard once you're established and recruiters/managers/other admins in your city know you.
