Also, how long do you take a holiday/vacation for?

    but is it really unlimited? At my last job, it was “unlimited with manager’s approval”, which basically means as long as the manager approves you’re good to go, no hard limits, but in practice managers wouldn’t approve more than 2-4 weeks (10-20 work days) a year, usually.

      There are some things that influence the actual time off:

      • I am bonused on my hours billed, so if I’m off more that 6 weeks in a 6 month period, I won’t get my bonus.
      • I work from home, so I don’t take as many days off for being sick because I’m not worried about spreading germs.
      • I don’t like to make out of office plans, so I take PTO between contracts. If I have a lot of work going on, I take less time off.
