I’m in the USA and I get 3 weeks paid vacation, 10 paid holidays, and 2 “personal days” which are also PTO, and more sick time than I am ever able to use up. I think I have over 200 hours of sick leave PTO accrued.
This is not a basic entry-level job though, it’s after climbing the career ladder for years. It would be much nicer for our country’s folks if everyone was allowed as much PTO by all jobs.
That you get so little vacation. I’m also in the US and I currently get 30 days of vacation, 10 holidays and 10 sick days. That’s been pretty standard for me and I wouldn’t take a job offering just 3 weeks (15 days) of vacation.
It’s not so bad, I’m well paid and live comfortably. I was able to buy a house and land for my family to live in, in a nice safe area with clean air in the midst of forests with rivers, lakes, and state parks all nearby. We get to enjoy rural-ish life with city amenities in short driving distance.

I only just this month “unlocked” my final week PTO after 7 years… 15 days PTO is the limit at my job :/
I’m sorry.
About what? I have a great life in the USA.
