I'd love to work in the US. But the lack of days off is off putting. I have yet to come off a holiday wishing I'd been working instead — from a short, medium and long term perspective — even when work is great.
- refurb 4y agoIf you're working for a SV tech firm, the vacation is comparable. I had 5.5 weeks off per year. I took 5 weeks off in a row one time. People who replied to emails on vacation were laughed at ("don't they have a life beyond work?").
- hulitu 4y ago5.5 Weeks is 28 working days. That's what a begginer gets here in DE ( as engineer)
- creativenolo 4y agoI know of many SV firms how don't do this, and one who does. Also, do you count sick days in this?
