27 days is still pretty bad tbh, tech is 30 by default

I think 27 is pretty good.

The only consultancy I've seen to offer 30 days is Accenture

Excluding 8 bank holidays, we get 20 days PTO + Christmas office closure (3.5 days) + 1 religious day (can be used anytime).

Suspect C1 is US based healthcare, which is completely different ballgame to NHS. Friend is a surgeon now but start in US healthcare meant 24-hour shifts, 1day off a week, very limited ability to take PTO.

Burnout is because you did something consistently for an extended period. You can do quick fixes like go on vacation, get some sleep, exercise more. But they may only help temporarily, depending on your level of Burnout.

Try adjusting your approach to work / life to a more sustainable, and ideally, enjoyable balance.

How many PTO/personal days do we get when we become managers?

I recently had an initial interview for a technical recruiter position. The guy on the phone stated that this is not a 9-5 job and long hours are expected. I proceed to ask how much PTO is offered and he said that is not recommend within the first 6 months of working and the harder you work the more PTO you receive. From that conversation, I saw instant red flags. Any thoughts?
