Personally, I don't think so. You can make more contracting as a developer ( 1099 ). Also you get more tax writeoffs, too.

That's quite an assertive comment given we have no information on the specific domain, nor of the personal network of the op. I might be wrong but I've understood both of these have quite specific requirements for the most lucrative contracting jobs.
