Totally guessing but if we're talking about the US, I think the Europeans that have worked in Europe before won't have any qualms taking their 24-30 paid vacation days per year whereas the Americans might be inclined to stick to what they know and take their 2 weeks. All based on hearsay, so this might as well totally be wrong :) My point of reference is when I had my first job with "we don't count your hours, you just need to do your job" I still kept mental tabs on my hours and it took years until I really didn't care anymore and just eyeballed it. (How can you even tell when "your" work is done? Especially if you work in sprints or with a kanban board)
