yes, default is 10

The Integrated IS-IS Global Default Metric feature  allows you to use one command to change the metric value globally for  all IS-IS interfaces. Besides offering the user the convenience of being  able to globally configure the value for all IS-IS interfaces, the  feature helps prevent errors that occur when interfaces are individually  configured to change the metric value: user can remove metrics from an  interface and then add the interface back into IS-IS without a set  metric, thereby allowing the default metric 10—unintentionally making  that interface a highly preferred one in the network. Such an occurrence  on the wrong interface could mean the rerouting of traffic across the  network on an undesirable path.

If you are looking for BGP MED, that is 0 by default.
