Wing chun vs other martial arts?

I am currently taking wing chun and i notice that there are many upsides and downsides. I am now questioning if this is the right martial art for me. I don't like the fact that it is not respected by other arts and is not really meant for MMA. I am looking for an art with practical self defense, good training, a combination of striking and grappling, and a good philosophy But i really need an art for self defense. I was thinking about JKD what does everyone else think. If you cant answer this question answer why wing chun apparently sucks?
