I worked with Joomla years ago on a contract and it was horrible. It was like punching myself in the face all day. The plugins were very poorly written, the interface was crap, and it was complete overkill. The result was pretty much, here is this super awesome CMS with super duper features, lets not use 99.9% of them and complicate the entire project by keeping it and having to integrate the complicated functionality into it.
Wordpress is *not* a pile of trash. I have used it several times for blogs and sites that need an easy way to manage content. The plugins and themes are easy to write, you can find lots of help, and it has been proven to support sites that get decent amounts of traffic. If you are wanting some big fancy CMS then Wordpress isn't the right tool, but from what I have seen the big fancy CMS is overkill.
