I would say 80% of employees are unhappy, but I don't have any data to back this up.

Can confirm. Was quite unhappy in my mechanical engineering job, had an opportunity to develop something nice in python, was told we'd do it in excel/vba instead, still unhappy.

excel has python support now! you may still get away with it

It's cloud based though... Not ideal. I get why they had to do that (they didn't want to expose people to the Python infra shit show) but it's still kind of a shame.

Would be better if they added Typescript support IMO.

...like the js infra stuff isn't it's own special nightmare?

It's significantly less of a nightmare and Deno is downright pleasant.
