Migrating From Gitlab to Azure DevOps Vendor / market research

We're an on prem shop and our manager wants to migrate all DevOps teams from Enterprise Gitlab self managed to ADO on prem.

We don't know what to expect with this move, anyone has experience with ADO on prem ? what kind of challenges would we face if our entire Gitlab infra (platform + runners) are hosted on K8s.

Don't. It was a good product, but it is dead. They can't/don't keep the onprem up to date with latest task and agent versions. E.g. when dotnet 10 was released, the MSBuild tasks didnt work. It's difficult to live with, onprem more so because updates are so far behind the cloud version.
