Should I switch to Salesforce in 2025? Looking for advice from devs who’ve made the leap 🙏

Hey everyone 👋

I’m a 2023 Computer Science graduate. I started off as a backend developer at a startup, but due to financial needs, I later took up a non-tech role at Amazon. Tried switching internally — didn’t work out.

Like many, I turned to DSA prep to get back into tech, but it’s super competitive out there. Recently, I discovered Salesforce and it really caught my interest. It’s technical, structured, and I like that it’s tied to solving real business problems.

The only concern? I’ve been hearing that Salesforce roles are becoming saturated, especially for freshers or newcomers trying to break in.

I genuinely love working with technology, regardless of the platform. Just trying to figure out if Salesforce is a smart move at this point or if I should continue focusing on traditional dev paths.

If you’ve made the switch or know someone who did, I’d really appreciate your thoughts!

Thanks in advance! 🙏
