My impression is that a certain kind of people find the challenges of embedded work attractive, but leave it sooner or later since the pay is not competitive with generic (but more boring) webdev. I guess this is due to the nature of thin margins in manufacturing hardware?

Depends what you’re building and where I guess. I didn’t get a pay cut moving from BE distributed services to embedded.
