I get like 6-7mb/s from my provider. The upload at my office at the university is about the same. But as we learned here at the university a few weeks ago, anyone upstream from you can be throttling your traffic. Our uploads to our media hosting company would slow to a crawl every afternoon for some reason. We knew where it started to slow down, but no one would fess up to throttling. Then the courts ruled that no provider could throttle traffic (net neutrality) even though appeals to that ruling were pending. The next day our slowdowns disappeared. Someone was throttling our traffic and just wouldn't admit to it.
