The good people over at Infoworld have published a story [infoworld.com] outlining why they feel systemd is a disaster.

Excerpt from Infoworld:

        While systemd has succeeded in its original goals, it's not stopping there. systemd is becoming the Svchost of Linux -- which I don't think most
        Linux folks want. You see, systemd is growing, like wildfire, well outside the bounds of enhancing the Linux boot experience. systemd wants to
        control most, if not all, of the fundamental functional aspects of a Linux system -- from authentication to mounting shares to network
        configuration to syslog to cron. It wants to do so as essentially a monolithic entity that obscures what's happening behind the scenes.
