I agree. I think a more nuanced assessment would be better, but for my part, i work in consulting and am moving from Australia to the us. All i have heard from my us counterparts is that they are lucky to get two paid weeks off a year. I get 4 minimum, and generally end up taking about 6 weeks paid leave a year. No questions or issues taking it provided i request it in advance. Do my us colleagues get paid more? Yes, about 10-30% when adjusting for col and ppp. But the inability to take time off sounds terrible. America's working culture and general work life balance sounds like it needs a hard reset.
