Hello , i am computer science grad 2024 due to recession in IT industry i am not getting any job but recently i am getting a job in a small company who makes website in wordpress and php. So i know php and i like php , i made some website in core php and like the experience but i dont like wordpress and did not feel good working with wordpress as there was no code to write. Now this company i will be working as a web developer so if major technology they use is wordpress than how often would i get to write code or it will be just all configuring. I know frontend with react too so do we get to write custom frontend or use mainly prebuilt theme or plugin.

Custom themes, plugins, templates and blocks are all done with custom code.
If you can go into WordPress and actually write code I personally think you are at a huge advantage and can bring significant value to this new company. I imagine it will all be plugins and themes if they’re using WordPress.
Plugins can be clunky and load a lot of extra bloat, and a lot of the time people use a whole plugin for something that could be put in one function. You could potentially save the company money and free up the system from unnecessary resources that might be being loaded speeding their site up considerably.
And if they’re using Elementor, get rid of that for the same reasons above and create the pages from scratch. Though it wouldn’t be JS for the frontend.
