Thanks! Do you get holidays off too, in addition? Or do you have to use Pto for holidays

15 days or 3 weeks on top of holidays is usually standard or to start

like

Thanks! Any how many holiday days a year are expected?

At my new job, I got 20 days plus 11 federal holidays so it kinda ends up being similar to pwc with firm shut downs. Only nicer thing about pwc is that firm shutdowns are concentrated vs the federal holidays which are all over the year.

We’re having a baby coming this end of August. KPMG has 12 weeks parental leave. Planning to take 4 weeks in September but I can’t seem to figure out when to use 8 more weeks. I’m so tempted to do Feb-March (peak busy season for our client) but I feel completely bad cause I actually like this client/team and I know how a lot of test work is done. (Senior A.) Can I suggest to my manager that rather than taking leave, to schedule me only 40 hours during these times? Would that be unfair to others?
