Pros
The good news is, as your experience grows – so do your creative challenges. Web developers don’t typically start out creating “next big thing”, but rather work their way to those projects by mastering the fundamentals. At the same time, even the most tedious tasks can offer you the fulfillment of knowing you’re creating real-world, impactful solutions. The big picture or “end goal” of each project can make all the tiresome processes worth it. You’ll also get a chance to flex your critical thinking or problem-solving skills, as you craft new methods or techniques to streamline the project lifecycle (and in turn, alleviate the more tedious tasks).
Cons
Web development tasks can often be done independently and effectively completed in a silo. This fortunately comes with plenty of freedom and autonomy – though the experience may feel isolating from time to time. Additionally, with working from home becoming the “new norm”, these feelings may be all the more amplified.
