I feel that Haskell's learning curve comes with the benefit that the curve actually goes in a hyper-productive direction. I have ~3 years of professional experience but with Haskell I've been able to create robust and extensible systems in deterministic amounts of time on a consistent basis, often working alone or with other "junior" devs. I think this is because I've spent the last ~6 years constantly learning FP/Haskell, and while it's been hard, every new thing I learn pushes me to be a more self-sufficient, capable engineer. If I weren't so lucky and didn't get the opportunity to only work in pure FP in Haskell/Scala from my first job out of college onwards, I don't think I would be as capable as I am now.
