What would scare me the most is the bad tooling. I do rely on my tools to search for references, etc. I wonder if it’s even possible to write a good analyzer for COBOL. Verbose operators and literals wouldn’t scare me at all.
Still would jump at the chance. It would have to be remote and I would strongly prefer being the only engineer touching the code.
you’re not going to get a position remote if your client is a bank or some other entity that does cobol. that shit is running on an airgapped machine running a vm of a machine from the 90s running a vm of a machine from the 70s. if you’re really unlucky the source will be on punch cards because they didn’t invest in a machine with storage and asked the VM developers for the same workflow as before

True most COBOL is in person only. At least from what Ive seen. Big detriment but most systems are on physical computers…so gl!
