I love ETL. I've worked with real Big Data (5PB+) and working on the data pipeline was my favorite part. The feeling you get when you rewrite a job to run 1000x faster so the company can make way more money.

That implies the work is in a revenue-center or that you're at the rare company that isn't myopically focused on sales.

  No, it doesn't. If you make an M/R job work 1000 times more efficiently you save money for the company. It doesn't matter if you are a profit center or a cost center.
