In my previous company (medium-sized with about 400 staff but only about 10 in IT) I was often finding out about these before the IT team and was telling them about it - the AV software was regularly updated so it wasn't often that anything really went wrong.

Current company has over 50,000 employees so we get no input and no say on anything IT wise (can ask for specific types of programs if we can justify them) and generally when I get notified of infected files I don't have access to any of the functions necessary to deal with them (even tho I run the same AV software at home and know it backwards).

Same story with spam control - we have MailSweeper and IT control it.  If you complain about spam getting thru they just say "oh well, we deal with hundreds of stopped emails every day so a few will slip thru" and that's about it.
