No

After Effects is a compositing / SFX software. Premiere is an editing tool that runs on Windows.

Not sure what your issues were but I can assure you FCP is not “stupid software.” Lots of stupid operators to be sure, but the software itself is solid and delivering broadcast projects to networks here in the U.S. along with films and untold thousands of hours of corporate projects as well.
Myself we’re delivering to Food Network, NBC, PBS and The Weather Channel just in our most recent projects and we’re soon to be delivering to the Discovery Networks for which Apple’s ProRes is one of only three acceptable codecs for use in their “Gold Tier” programming level. We’re up to over 100 HD Masters for Broadcast one and several hundred hours of SD programming off our three FCP systems.
FCP and Avid are both tools. If you don’t know how to use the tool, doesn’t matter what you use.
