I work with Spring everyday and really appreciate how it simplifies many things with enterprise Java development. However that appreciation has come with a cost.
In the original "Java Development with the Spring Framework" in 2005, it was argued that J2EE was far too complex in order to be effective. Spring was going to provide a simplifying framework to make development easier.
To me it's ironic how Spring has evolved in complexity over the years, but it's the first framework any of us turn to.
