The syntax of php is a little awkward and setting up debugging can be hard.
But the frameworks are solid: Symfony, Yii are really nice and modern.
My ideal framework would be, the syntax, typing and of c# , the tooling and libraries of php, the admin and forms of Django, the easy deployments of JS.
I think PHP is wonderful to work in, but it's no longer in fashion (minus the still-big Wordpress/Drupal space, of course). C# is nice to work in too but only certain types of companies use it.
Software dev is rarely someone sitting down and going through all the possible stacks to work in and doing side-by-side evaluations... it's just someone's pet preference, usually a senior or founder, following the macro fashion trends of the last few years =/
Which is to say... the job availability market is not based on language merits, sadly.
