If you are a person looking to get good salary by becoming programmer but you are not really interested in programming, Java is most likely to be your choice.
You will never advance, but that's fine. If you are bad enough you will just change company and get your salary from another.
There is so much pressure to find Java developers that companies frequently forgo any sane process to check whether the person is actually qualified to do the job. With tools available like CoderPad and the likes there should actually be no excuse to do this but I guess somebody high in HR would be very unhappy seing how few actual Java developers they are able to hire after applying it.
When you work as a manager for the company and you are presented with a new project you can't say you will not do it. In many companies this will mean you are expected to hire people and to get it out the door.
In most companies incentives are against "we will ACTUALLY only hire best people".
