Short answer: Yes :-)
Still the backbone of many banks, building societies, credit card companies, etc. See http://www.careerjet.co.uk/cobol-jobs.html for some of job adverts. This old 2009 article http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/2009/apr/09/cobol-inter... is still pretty much true AFAIK.
Within hour drive from my house, I can tally at least a half-dozen corporate IT shops that outsourced heavily in this way, axing thousands (in aggregate) of jobs that normally were served by internal/domestic consulting houses.
Yes, on the backend there is still a lot of COBOL, even if it is running on micro-hardware as opposed to the old big iron. Claims adjudication, utility metering, charge card processing, billing for just about any corporation that existed pre-1980, etc.…
