There are a still Perl shops out there. ZipRecruiter (where I work) and Booking.com are probably the biggest Perl shops in terms of Perl Dev headcount but I could be unaware of another company that's as big or bigger. There are a number of small to medium size companies in LA that are primarily Perl based and The Rubicon Project has a bit of Perl on the web side and C++ and Java for their ad network. Perl isn't dead, it's just not the hot new kid on the block by a long shot.

As a point of perspective, there are still VB6 shops out there. That's way more "dead" than Perl or Python, but so long as the checks still clear...
