Just my opinion but to me the major difference in hireability is going to come into play based on the types of jobs you're applying for. If you want to be applying for jobs working on applications that involve developing algorithms, then Computer Science might be a better choice as they typically have higher math requirements, and the potential employer is more likely to be interested in someone with proven math skills. If you just want to code on an application, and you don't have any dreams of writing your own algorithms then a software development degree will do you just fine.
All of that being said, I know people with only an Associates in Software Development who are doing incredible things involving the aforementioned math. Once you're out in the field the work you produce speaks for itself, and you really never stop learning (unless you stop trying). There are plenty of people out there with 2 master's degree's in different aspects of Computer Science who write terrible code, and just as many people out there who have no degree at all and write incredible code, and guess what, they end up working together on the same projects. What I'm trying to say is do what is going to make you the happiest, because in the end a B.S. is not going to define your career path.
major difference tbh is the initial intern that a university can hook you up with, even as an alumni you should see the options they have.
tbh programming seems to be an end-all for many science majors that aren't STEM.
