I'm 100% so far at my job, but we had one test that tricked somewhere around 30% of employees. They spoofed everyone's supervisor and made it look like an urgent Teams message was pending.
Usually, if you get phished you lose your bonus. They made an exception that one time.
They tried a similar one on me once. Sent a email saying my boss (by name) sent me a virtual gift card. I immediately knew it was one of their "phishing tests" as my boss is a giant douche who would rather take the time to throw me under a bus than do anything that nice.
