4. CodeIgniter (8%)
5. Yii 2 (7%)

• 5% use a company internal framework,
• 3% use no framework at all,
• 3% use a CMS for everything,
• 1% use a simple MVC framework.

There seem to be continent specific framework preferences: In America and Asia, Laravel seems to be the framework of choice (except for Russia: Yii 2), whereas in Europe you'll find more Symfony2.
