Kombat has good points. However, I am happy for the op. Congrats on the new job!
I would agree that an extract Brewer is a lesser Brewer than an ag Brewer. Extract beer can be just as good as ag, but ag takes more knowledge and experience.
None of that matters though. You do what you need to to get the job done. If that means extract, so be it. There is no shame in it as long as the beer is good.
Fwiw... Professional means getting paid for you're doing. There's no reason why a professional Brewer couldn't use extract. Nor is there any reason why they shouldn't. I would use extract for most of my brews if it wasn't so much more expensive. As long as its fresh it makes good beer
