PwC has office wide holidays Dec 23 - Jan 3? Is this on top of the allocated vacation days / PTO? Can anyone confirm, I’m skeptical 🤔

Valid question OP. Ths was not the case 6-10 years ago. Next step - shutdown for the Canada day week.

Usually it is a mix of vacation days + statutory holidays + additional days

Thanks !

The office is closed Dec. 24-Jan. 3 inclusive. These are all either firm provided paid days off, or stat holidays EXCEPT one day. For Dec. 29 you need to take a vacation, float, or unpaid day.

Great info, thanks!

Isn't this normal? No work would get done during that time anyway and most clients also have time off during that period

Thanks

It’s normal even for boutique/small firms.
