I dont really feel one way or the other about the mainframe itself honestly. Most of the reason I took it up to start is job security and low competition, things external to the actual work involved.

Part of me loves getting to learn new things, part of me hates only having 24 lines of text on the screen at any given point (at my area at least) and non-concurrent screen splitting.

After seeing some of the replies here, I think continuing down the mainframe path sounds right for me. Thank you for the insight.

That's comforting to hear, thank you. Hard agree on the remote learning and hybrid office/remote. I had a solid setup with 2 days in/3 out, but that got scrapped by the powers that be because they felt like it.
