Powershell, is it worth learning at the start?

Question

PowerShell

Since I'm just starting my career as a system administrator, so to speak, I'm pissing off the priorities in learning the material. Actually a question. Is it worth it to learn Powershell at the start or "stuff" a larger database first and then deal with it?

Answer 1

Well, it does not happen that exactly one skill is used in the work. Don't limit yourself to one tool.
Start working and keep in mind that you can do anything in different ways. Plus, in the course of work, you will figure out what to work with at all. Windows admin is good, Linux admin is good, but two in one is more expensive.
MS Server Core editions are a bit scary to set up, a powershell will be useful there.
Automating some operations in Active Directory is also made much easier with powershell.
Process logs - bash, grep, sed, awk in total rule noticeably more by the simplicity of commands (or I like it better).
To automate the installer or some window manipulations - it's easier to use AutoIT than to get into the giblets and find other methods of interaction.
There is no single and convenient tool, so grab everything and work.

Answer 2

The name of a large ActiveDirectory organization for several thousand people without a PS is nowhere.
