Everyone says “Nobody uses Lisp” and Lispers say “Yes they do, there’s ITA, and, um, Autocad, and, uh, oh yeah, Paul Graham wrote Viaweb in Lisp!” Not very helpful for either side.

That’s Peter Christensen’s words on his website, before introducing a list of companies that use Common Lisp. That statement still reasonates with me since I still here it here and there, despite this list, despite LispWork’s success stories, despite Allegro, despite the continued effort of @azzamsa and contributors to carry on the list on awesome-lisp-companies.
