Working as a developer can be a very rewarding career; however, like all professions it also has some drawbacks. If you’re a developer here are some hard truths that InfoWorld says you’ll have to face:

1. It’s all just if-then-else statements.
2. Most of the Web is just data stored in tables.
3. Users have minds of their own.
4. Most of what you code will never be used.
5. Scope creep is inevitable.
6. No one understands you — especially the boss.
7. Privacy is a pain.
8. Trust isn’t cheap.
9. Bitrot happens.
10. The walled garden will flourish.
