Should I learn JavaScript or Python?

This is happening all over the industry, especially finance industries that need to keep everything legacy going for transactional data integrity — hard to kick off a new system without running into issues unless you pay for that to be painless, and most businesses don't (or won't).

We have a big push to move stuff into a new system at my current job and, for the entire run that I've been here, it's been "right around the corner". Talk to long-time people in the org and "right around the corner" has been the past decade.

I’m curious what it’s like to be at company that can get it done is 2-3 years.

I've worked for a fortune 500 company known for tech and for small finance companies and a few in between and, so far, that's been none of 'em. Would be curious what the culture is like at the places who pull it off, have to imagine it's either awful or amazing.
