10 days is kinda standard, with some jobs giving more bar on longevity (e.g… every 2 years you get 1 more day per year, up to a maximum on 15 days).
I’ve got it way better than most Americans with my public sector job. I get 10 days vacation 1 “personal holiday” (like vacation, but can be used towards overtime his like a business closure day), 15 days sick leave, and we’re closed every federal holiday except for June Juneteenth.
I also attend a lot of night meetings, and get 1.5:1 comp time when I go over 40 hours in a week instead of OT wages, so that is my main source of vacation. I probably get another 2-3 weeks just from that.
I just took a week off for Christmas and have another 3 weeks saved up and I’ve only been with the city for about 14 months.
Very few Americans get 30 days.
