I'm a solution architect at big fortune50. Job can be described as 70% technical and 30% business. You get to do demos, conduct presentations, discuss with customers their needs, travel to customer sites if needed. Usually, it's a relaxed atmosphere with some 2-3 weeks with a lot of things to do, while in other weeks you get to explore and do what you want. In term of career, most SE's move either to a sales role such as BDM, AM, AE..etc. But most stick to the tech side and are either happy where they are or move to a Manager of SEs. Salary and bonus are good too, depending on the company and job description. Be aware, that some companies ask their SE's to do delivery too. So ask during interview what the role entails.

PS: RFPs are the worst part of the job. but depends on how big the team is and how much help you get.
