Unless one works for the games industry, does IT at big corp, embedded devices programming.

None of which are particularly sexy, unfortunately.

Given the hoards of candidates for game development and IoT jobs, putting up with the pay and hours, at least two of those are quite sexy.

Game development, maybe. The IoT people just want something to pay their bills.

Games pays badly, big corp IT pays badly, and unfortunately despite the difficulty, embedded tends to pays poorly unless you are at one of the big tech companies.

And yet the reason why they pay badly is the endless queue of people trying to get one of those jobs.
