It's telling that you don't tend to see this in Europe, where leave is more generous and people actually take it. (Typically around 6 weeks, including public holidays).
- cmrdporcupine 4y agoYeah it's pretty foreign here in Canada, too. A Silicon Valley import. Prospective employer (US-ian) seems to be doing this, though. But it remains to be seen what they'll do for an offer to a Canadian. Guess I'll find out. Before I quit Google I had 5 weeks PTO + a whole pile of unpaid "flex" days if I wanted them. It could get hard to use all 5 weeks sometimes.
