I work for an enterprise in-house web application, where over time we have a ton of tables, like over several hundred unfortunately. Writing queries for each any every table and manually mapping those to objects sounds exhausting. EntityFramework helps a lot with that, for CRUD operations.

Additionally, I think unit testing would benefit from an ORM as well. Instead of calling an actual database, you can easily have an in-memory database with an ORM with mocked data. Though, I suppose that is technically possibly with straight SQL queries as well, but I imagine it's easier with an ORM.
