I have a chance to start learning and taking care of vdi desktops and deployments. Question to you is anyone that is a vdi admin now and do they like it? Would they recommend this career path? I have little to no experience with it now. I'm a help desk supervisor now I would be leaving this to go to that. Career change for me.Thoughts and recommendations would be great .
Thanks in advance

So no one doing this? I can't see that as a good sign. ha
Maybe my description is bad. Any help would be appreciated. -

You have to give a little more information before someone can help you. If you are going to manage VMware's VDI, your start should happen here:

Personally I haven't came across any VDI deployment that is state of the art. I honestly can't picture someone being good in managing and deploying such technology without taking official class: https://mylearn.vmware.com/mgrreg/courses.cfm?ui=www_edu&a=one&id_subject=71951 preferably in classroom environment. -

I don't do it anymore, but I was a VDI admin using Horizon View/Unidesk. It wasn't my only responsibility, as I was the vSphere, MS Exchange, BC/DR admin as well. Not sure if its a career path, but it's nice to know.
You can buy a VMUG subscription and build a home lab to learn a ton about it
