> unlimited > up to 5 weeks

This seems surreal to me, given that here (Germany) that is just above the legal minimum and every decent job gives 25-30 days. If someone offered "unlimited" here, I'd expect at least 40-50 days to be acceptable.




Legal minimum for salaried work in Canada is 2 weeks I believe, and I doubt there's a minimum at all in the US.

Google Canada capped us out at 5 weeks and that was after years of lobbying. But we could take copious unpaid time, and we were well paid, so.


I got 40 last year. talking with people, I understood that this is an acceptable amount. on the high side, but acceptable.
