What field are you in?

As a software engineer, I started at my current gig with 3 weeks of PTO + 9 paid holidays - and we’re on the lower side of what I’ve seen in the industry.

Don’t get me wrong, burnout is still an issue (though more complex than the “employer is demanding” straw man). But “2 weeks if your lucky” is definitely not an accurate representation of the software industry from what I’ve seen.

Majority of Americans don't make as much or have the same benefits as software engineers in the US.
