I never got into WP, but had multiple good experiences with Drupal. The problem for me is that WP gives you a good foundation, but if you don't know how to develop on that foundation, write your own plugins, or control your own security, you end up doing what 99.5% of the people do that use WP:
1 - use a C panel "one click" install of the CMS from your web host
2 - start looking for plugins to give you the functionality you want
3 - install said plugins without sand boxing them or even testing them for vulnerabilities.
4 - end up getting hacked and then wonder what happened
It's true that for the most part the WP core is pretty solid, but its the billions of sketchy plugins that people use that create vulnerabilities and allows their sited to get hacked.
