I think that in jobs where statistics is the main function of the job, you will often not find them using Excel. The business intelligence folks at my company use it for cursory analyses, but I often question the rigor involved in their practices, and using Excel to do statistics is icing on the cake. I would trust the results of SAS or R or, hell, even Minitab, over the results I get out of Excel. Microsoft seems more content making their product shinier than improving the underlying numerical accuracy of their methods.
The sooner people realize it's not designed for real statistics, the sooner people can stop hearing statisticians rant when they receive "Report_Analysis_Feb1-2012_Update_Final-v3.xlsx".
