Nope. Most groups have their own coffee machines and stock their own coffee.

I work at an aircraft company. While I'm a salaried employee, the effects of the union being present at this site hit everyone. It's nice in some cases (benefits), but often it really screws us (hard to lose ineffective employees, no little 'fringe' benefits, etc). I'd be surprised if most companies w/ union involvement are much different.

State Academia here - No free coffee. We sorta have a informal 'coffee club' in our office. You bring in a round of homebrew and make it when there isn't any in the pot. You also hate on the people who make weak coffee.
