66% of Americans want European-style vacation policies, like being OOO for the entire month of August

  • I'm glad to hear it's not an issue in your experience / industry.

  • German here: I have yet to witness these "European-style" vacations mentioned in the post title.

    Most workplaces seem to frown at people taking >2 consecutive weeks of vacation, esp. if they don't have kids and do it in main travel season / during school holidays. Handing in ~3 weeks of holidays often at least needs some kind of explanation to the team-lead, e.g. "I have school kids who have their summer holidays and we need to keep them busy until school starts again."

    I have yet to see a single company going easy on someone saying "I'll be off all of August KTHXBYE".
