Writing or maintaining? I am sure besides all the hate it's surely possible to build cool clean things with PHP.

However, working on legacy PHP code (as I have experienced in the past) ranks within the worst things I could imagine for a job.

There are building a managed wordpress hosting platform. It will be around building restapi for control plane and bit of hosting infra work.

Personally I would be careful. WordPress is just another red flag for legacy PHP code.

But keep in mind that's only me. I wouldn't do a java job either, so I am likely just a bad example

Its not managed hosting platform backend but its for customer's Wordpress site. So you never know. I am bit concerned about that part only.
