This very much depends on the country, and local employment expectations. There's the old joke comparing US and European "out-of-office" auto replies:
US: "I am on holidays, but I'll check in with my email about every night. I can be reached at $PHONE_NUMBER for an emergency"
Europe: "I am on holiday. I will return in 4 weeks."
- pc86 9y agoThis is very much a personal preference and not a culture/company thing. I've worked for companies with great work-life balance where some employees (including non-management) would check emails over the weekend or when on vacation. And I've worked for companies that had an expectation you check email on the weekends where some employees (including management) would not do anything over a holiday.
