We have existing system built on PERL (developed over time) by various developers, with their own unique style.

I'll just bet you do. My translation: We run a horrible writhing nightmare of spaghetti code with no common style standards. Really, it's just that they tout that as a feature that makes it noteworthy.

It's a fixer-upper!
I guess they feel they have to warn you but they don't want it to sound like a bad thing. Maybe if you were some sort of code anthropologist it would be a plus.

OH BOY. Cause that's what Perl is for, right? Writing your own unique and undecipherable new way of doing everything because you're smarter than everyone else.

Plus, they think "Perl" is an acronym. WARNING WARNING WARNING
