Solid work experience.
Web Developer:

Cons: Clients can be resistant to change.
June 2015
Low stress if you like constantly learning.
Web Developer:
Pros: This job constantly is evolving and changing as new languages come out. There are so many opportunities from learning even just one language. It's really fun to solve problems for clients and create what they're looking for.
Cons: You have to constantly stay on top of evolving languages and practices. It's easy to fall behind.
June 2015
Crazy for work.
Web Developer:
Pros: Working with new technologies.
June 2015
Avoid Old Practices.
Web Developer:
If I walked into a meeting with a client for filming an event ten years ago and told them I'd be using an EX1, they'd say "of course you are." If I did that today, I'd be laughed out of the room.
In web development, it's very common for people to be learning and professionally using techniques that were relevant a decade ago, and everything in-between. If you're using Wordpress, PHP, cPanel, you're wasting your time. Study Dart, Node, static site generation, cloud services.
May 2015
My advice to you.
Web Developer:
I don't have any advice to new web developers at this time.
