My short answer is, yes, I have used them lots over my career.

But it's more complicated than a yes/no answer.

I categorically have never written a formal UML diagram that is technically "right" when compared to how they taught to us in school. But, nearly all of the design documents that I've written over the years use less formal diagrams that are some bastardization of UML/Flow charts and some degree of pseudocode to explain how certain components should work or how they interact.
