Never in my long career. There are more projects in the backlog than I can ever finish, a bunch of people asking me for advice (I'm a very senior developer), endless meetings, new tools to research, etc. If you're frequently finding yourself with nothing to do at work, either your managers are failing at their primary job of delegating work or you're not realizing that there are useful things you can do that you weren't explicitly assigned (refactoring code, researching technology that can be useful to your team, writing more tests, etc.).
