Settle this FE vs BE debate once and for all!

Poll. This is for the employee at Stripe and American Express. Lets see what blind says, Who's career will grow faster, a FE eng or BE eng? Lets assume both are exceeding expecatations and contributing 10x. Who comes out on top 5 years down the line? The eng who contributed to architectural designs, cost etc or the FE eng who moved some buttons, reduced some BE calls etc.

Both are important with its own challenges. Dont forget DevOps and the K8s fanboys. They are also claiming/projecting uber relevance. Making a killing solving CiCD
