Why would one need to save up vacation days to take a “full paycheck” off? That is one month, so 20 working days? 20 working days should be very common (at least in EU)?

That’s pretty shitty PTO policy you’ve worked under.

You don’t get paid out your vacation time?
Oof.

I haven’t had that little vacation or PTO with 9 employers over about the same time. Except for my first few years.
Current company does PTO so I negotiated 6 weeks (effectively sick and vacation) plus the 8 holiday days they recognize.

I’m on a three week break and that’s like normal summer holiday for most of us in France. I’d even say on the small side because we can’t really be away that much from our respective jobs. The main difference is what one can afford to do during those three weeks, for sure, but otherwise we are paid the same.

A full paycheck for an extended period contains many paychecks.

Oh I was assuming a 2 week pay period so 10 days and still not all that surprised that someone would get that. I work part time but I don’t get any vacation nor sick time at all.

I probably shouldn’t mention that 20 days is the legal minimum for full-time employment, and that 30 days is the typical amount most people receive. And there are extra days for getting promoted or working 10+ years…

I moved from my homeland to another EU country. When applying for a job through an agency, they asked me if 27 days of vacation is enough for me, cause typically everyone have 30 or more days in this country. I looked at her, smiled and said “Yes, that is enough”. Little did she knew that back in my town I had maximum of 20 working days vacation + by the contract I was not able to take out more than 10 days in a row.
