Perl is not hideous and it's easy to read. What you dislike is bad Perl. When I went from C -- very structured and organized C -- to Perl, I wrote very structured and organized Perl. I was amazed when I discovered all the bad perl out there.
But get yourself a book like Object-Oriented Programming in Perl and you will see some beautiful Perl. This is a terrific book, by the way.

I'd go with the cool company. And frankly C++ is what I call an ugly language. So these things are subjective. The marketplace doesn't love Perl right now ... but if it's a job you love, do it. You can always pick up Python or Ruby on the side.
This is a good book. I'm amazed it is so cheap on Amazon.
OO Perl
I'd be really genuinely interested to see a source for your comment regarding "-pbp" being out of favour. Do you have a link? I always thought thedamian was incredibly well respected in the Perl community. His book Perl Best Pratices is a great read, in my opinion... Actually, his Object Oriented Perl is an amazing read, too.
