scikit-learn doesn't have a strong neural network codebase -- for anything not NN based they've largely got you covered (along with good infrastructure tooling for pipelines, cross validation, hyper-parameter searching etc.). Contrary to the impression you may get if you only follow the current buzzwords there is a great deal of value in machine learning right now beyond NNs and deep learning. On the other hand if deep learning is what you want to do, scikit-learn is not currently the best library for that.
