Yes. My first job out of school was as a mainframe programmer on a large accounting application. It was written in COBOL with DB2 on the backside. Online screens were COBOL + IMS + DB2. I learned about what not to do to succeed so much at that and by the time I left that team I was a valuable member of it.
