Just my opinion! Larry can sell you on merits. 
I think frameworks like Drupal are designed to minimize what a developer can do and I prefer a more flexible, smaller framework that empowers.
It's generally a sign the company does not value (or trust) developers and would rather swap them in like sparkplugs. Probably for good reasons!
Also- any code in a database is a deal-breaker for me. If you like developing in web forms then have at it.

I also read a good article once about 'green' development which states the case that heavy frameworks or declarative languages like Ruby are pretty wasteful enviroment wise. CPU's = heat, heat = cooling, cooling = wasted energy.

Can you explain why to a relative newbie who is considering Drupal?
