Ours doesn't. They like to test each update first before having it deployed.
When there is an update to install, they push it out to the machines on the
network at night or on login and for those of us who have our own assets on
the network that we take home at night, we're on a distribution list and
they send us an email with the link.

I find it hard to believe that any IT department would
frown upon using the native Windows Update feature to
install critical updates. I've worked with some pretty
anal IT departments, but all of them strongly
recommended running the Windows Update feature (or
setting it up to run automatically) to keep
workstations up to date and safe.
