In software engineering you can find jobs with 3-6 weeks of vacation a year. Even 4 weeks is long enough to spend 2 weeks abroad and have a enough time left over for a few long weekends and extra time off during the holidays.

It seems like the PM is always concerned about a timeline or a manager won't approve it unless you give a year lead time. So, I've personally just ignored PTO as part of the benefits as long as it's at least two weeks. Hopefully this isn't the same for a lot of the folks on here. I can't tell you how many times I've tried to take even a few days off only for it to be denied by a PM or EM or HR because "we're busy".
