Yes, I worked for a software company that vested all the workers options due to various bits of the company being sold off. Work in sales pretty much stopped as everyone spent all day watching the stock tickers. I was on about £30k at the time but received £170k extra in one year due to the accelerated vesting after just 2 years of work. Others had far more options, granted at much lower prices. I'm sure many received £1m+.
