Ask HN: Is Facebook blocked in your office internet?

No, but Google Plus is, which is where Google Hangouts stores videos. Immensely frustrating during my lunch break

No. I work at Facebook, and we don’t block any sites except ones with malware.

Yes. Both Facebook and Twitter are blocked.

Nope, over the last 5 years i've found employers more leniant

No it is not but I remember a hospital in Central London which Facebook was blocked in. I'm not sure if it was a policy or they had an issue with their network!

Today I'd prefer work in a place where most social media sites were blocked (except Hacker News?).

I worked for an exchange and it was not blocked there. I worked for a car automation company and it wasn't blocked there either. My following two jobs were at multinational banks. In the first one, it was blocked. In the second, I took a "social media responsibility" training and I was added to the exclusion list and I could access Facebook, Reddit, Twitter etc. Now I work for a small finance company and the network is wide open.
