Where I work (Denmark); it's more the looks you get if you only take one or two weeks off or if you constantly stay in the office past 7hrs.
Over working is not healthy and you are not productive anyway. Work (at most) the 37.5hrs/week (maybe 40 if there's a crunch) you are paid for and take your 6 weeks of yearly vacation that you are entitled to (plus holidays) - is what I'd recommend and what my manager pushes. I think that's a good thing.
- blondin 7y ago6 weeks of yearly vacation! you guys have it good lol
- e12e 7y agoPlus holidays. If it's similar to Norway (we get "only" five weeks, and an extra week past... 60 years?) - there's about a week of holidays (Christmas day, Easter , New years day etc) that don't count towards the total (we have 10 of those in Norway - but as some move, and/or fall on days that are typically off for office workers, like Saturday, they don't amount to 10 work days off. Somewhat depending on contract and type of work).
- carlmr 7y agoIt's pretty normal in Europe. Not necessarily by law, but most French, Germans, Dutch, Danish, Swedish, Norwegian and Finnish have 6 weeks. In most places the minimum is 4 or 5 weeks, but 6 weeks is the norm.
