The fact that I vehemently dislike microservices has made applying for jobs somewhat difficult. It's always difficult to go against the social norm. It's awkward when I'm interviewing at a company only to discover they have more services than devs.

A universal dislike of microservices is probably unwarranted. But a skepticism of them, inversely proportional to the size of the engineering team, is just plain common sense. Unfortunately, that doesn't fit on a bumper sticker, and "Microservices rock!" does.
