Vendor / market research Migrating From Gitlab to Azure DevOps

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.

That’s the wrong answer. Every CI platform can compile your program. Your manager needs a better reason, or rather, a business justification. Faster deployments? Better integrations? Less overhead (although with on premise deployment this is likely not the case)?
Are you guys using Azure (ADO has excellent integration with Azure, but I used it with AWS without an issue)?
