Anyone here experienced negotiating a job offer when you already have holiday plans? I'm currently interviewing with Deloitte for a role and I'm not sure how to bring up the fact that I'm planning to take around 3 weeks off in December.

I'd really like to join them as soon as possible (October or November for me), but I don't want to be forced to cancel my holiday or take unpaid leave. Has anyone experienced something similar before?

Joined PwC last year (in July) and took 3 weeks off in August… didn’t tell anything until I had joined but made sure everyone knew from day 1…

No - refreshes in October so I was in the same situation… took it as unpaid…

Just talk to them

What’s your work-life balance like? I feel like I’m constantly working after hours, always balancing multiple projects, hardly ever going through a phase where there isn’t a ton of critical initiatives going on. It definitely wasn’t like this when I was a more junior PMM, but as a Senior PMM, my work-life balance has severely decreased. Is this just the nature of Product Marketing? Or can I actually find a senior PMM role that allows a bit more room to breathe?

Clawback clause in current contract: been in role for over 2 yrs, it was an internal move that required relocation. Relocation was approved shortly after (over 2 yrs ago) but covid meant the actual move and start of my contract with new subsidiary was delayed, I was paid by the previous subsidiary meanwhile. I got small relocation package. Would internal move be subject to a buy-out/clawback clause if I leave now and if yes, is it time in role or time under new contract? Any experience? Thanks!
