Bioinformatics major - jobs?

I am a current first year at UCSD and I recently switched my major from microbiology to bioinformatics in the bio department. I was wondering if I made a poor decision because I heard rumors that bioinformatics people (Bachelors) dont get employed in the biotech/informatics industry. If this is true, would it help me find jobs by going further into MS/PhD programs in bioinformatics ?

Thanks.
