I can't speak for others, but I'm currently going through a very painful time tools-wise. We've switched to a new workflow with all new tools and there are several objective ways in which they make my life harder. There was, of course, the learning curve that any new tool has in the first few weeks/months. It's been 2 years, and I'm still getting slowed down every damn day by these horrible tools. It's not that I haven't learned them, it's that they are objectively worse than what we had before. (And what we had before had a number of issues, too.) I will fervently let others know of the potential pitfalls of the tools I'm forced to use by my employer. It may make me sound like I'm being religious, but really, I'm just trying to warn others what they're getting themselves into.
