Oh they’re targeted There’s even a term for it. It’s called whaling.
About punishment though, do companies normally “punish” people for being victims of a cyberattack? I could see them maybe make you take some cyber security training.
If they fired you, I wonder if the company would worry you might sue them for wrongful termination, claiming it wasn’t your fault.
Of course if they give you the security training and you still click the bad link, maybe they can use that as a justification for termination, where they will claim you were properly trained to avoid it.

It’s the owning class. They’re always treated differently from the wiring working class. Reminds me of history in Europe where the noble families ruled. Often these families were more inbred than any Southern stereotype ever was, and intellectual faculties to match, but they were they bosses. It’s also why every fairy tale starts with a beautiful princess to let you know it was fiction as in reality most princesses were inbred horrors.
