I've talked to many fewer people than you, but my impression has been slightly different. Broadly speaking, the engineer-type programmers tend to dislike Lisp, and the computer-science-type programmers tend to like it. (Those two classes cover, in my [albeit limited] experience, two of the principle ways of thinking about programming.)
Eh. It's attitude, not job description :) And anyway, you should probably take that with a relatively enormous grain of salt, as small sample sizes aren't conducive to accurate data.
