Survivor or Infected?

This.

They both have their differences as well as pros/cons, but to be honest, they aren't really so different as some people may think. For example: Running off as a survivor is punished by death at the hands of SI and vise versa as infected. They both require a good understanding of teamwork and strategy if you want to succeed.

After gunning down an entire zombie horde there with an AK or chopping them all up to pieces with a machete, sometimes you can feel like a total badass, more so if you play on a higher difficulty. Once sides are turned and your in the shoes of a zombie, you feel a little mad with power due to the fact that you can kill a lone survivor with ease. Whichever your killing, it both feels very satisfying so its hard for to say which I prefer.

I love playing as both, purely because they are different. I like to be able to go through a game being the survivors then the infected for the same level. Especially if you play as infected first, you learn the good spots, you learn the bad, you learn where the choke points are, then when you play as the survivors you can guess the types of places they will be hiding in. I like to play as both purely because playing as one, helps you to learn how to play better as the others.
