It's not that developers don't have paid vacation. Most companies have at least 2 weeks, and a lot of tech companies give unlimited.
Rather, it's a culture of working which discourages you (but doesn't prevent you) from taking that vacation.

Saying "well, he could've taken the vacation and we promise that it would have no effect on raises/promotions/whatever" is not an excuse, the employee must have had X days of vacation, period.
