Honestly, this post has made me question staying in embedded software too. Unless you are in a few major tech cities (Boston, San Francisco, etc) it is harder to find opportunities locally and/or remotely. Other types of software development seems more common. One nice thing about embedded development is that it is very easy to do it as a hobby now! Making a project robot or something like that may be a fun diversion after working 9-5 at a web-dev job!
