Programming can be a great career, you just want to master an application domain in addition to the technology so you go in the "turns our expensive, error-prone manual processes into cheap computational processes" box instead of the "java grunt" box. You don't want to do that if you're any good at programming, because if you're any good at programming you care a lot about the technology and very little about the business, but sucking it up and getting knowledgeable and pretending to care about the things the suits care about is how you keep yourself out of the very expensive janitor box.
