Personally, I'm not big on big frameworks. I like Prototype (more of a library than a framework) because it helps me get my job done without getting in the way.

One of the architects I work with claims to hate Ajax. I asked her why and she said she had worked on a project and they used JSON (which is and isn't an Ajax framework) and said she thought the javascript was a nightmare.
I showed her how I used prototype and well written (the key) javascript and she agreed that they might have gone overboard on the other project.
