Never used monads with Clojure (the only Lisp I've done "serious" work in). Haskell introduced them to me, but I've never done anything large with Haskell (no jobs!). Scala, however, has monads via the cats or (more recently) the ZIO library and they work just fine there.

The main problem with Monads is you're almost always the only programmer on a team who even knows what a Monad is.
