That's a lot of assumptions:
* Booking.com still using Perl for everything
* Code being decrepit
* Code lacking meaningful testing
* Developers in agony
Do you have some inside information to know that all of these are true?
You also don't seem to understand that companies are in it for the money, not to provide nice new development projects to make developers happy. If you are programming for a living, you should know that programs are written to make money.
By the way, torturing the developers to make a better product, is a well known meme among Perl 6 core developers.

Perl 6 is ending up quite nicely, thank you.
