There certainly isn't much practical career differences between studying physics, cs, or math. The best paying and most abundant career opportunities in all of those fields is some form of software development.

It's sort of a similar situation for lots of engineering too, especially those who study fields with tighter labor markets (aero, biomed, nuclear). Lots of young people set their sights on NASA/Boing/GM and end up not making the cut. I've worked with lots of these people during my career.
