How extensive are real life sensitivity analyses?

In undergrad we learned how to perform monte carlo simulations which essentially allow you to pull multiple levers at once and run 1000s of simulations to find out how an output will respond to multiple changes in inputs. - so am wondering if these are ever used or if it's usually just WACC x Exit multiple?
