Just out of curiosity: are there companies actually writing mission-critical code in a Haskell? My impression is that those normally tend to get written in C++ and the like.

Mostly you don't want that, but there are a few industries where its jackpot. For instance building some state control engine for rockets etc. Also Haskell does not force you to write perfect code, but forces you to write code that is considering all the possible outcomes, so even if you handwave some stuff it will be pretty clear to everyone reading you handwaved some stuff.
