Employees usually know to not click on random shit they get sent. Most mails alrdy get filtered before they even reach the employee. Good luck actually achieving something with phishing mails.

When I was at NCC Group, we had a policy about phishing in penetration tests.

The policy was "we'll do it if the customer asks for it, but we don't recommend it, because the success rate is 100%".
