The reason their are so many distributions is that enables choice. If you don't like the way Debian does it, chances are there is someone out there who will suit your needs.
I personally like Debian just because its easy and straight forward to get basic stuff setup. Its my server distro of choice. Everyone has dependency handling now but apt-get is still king. Basically, try it out and see what you think. If you don't like it, we aren't going to get a pay cut because of it.
