What is a standard amount personal paid of time off in consulting (excluding national holidays)? Asking in days per year. Current offer is for 10 but that’s less than my old firm. However this is my first job switch so I’m not sure what’s considered average.

With, 10 is nothing

PwC US is 22 vacation days for anyone with two years+ of tenure or Manager and up, plus two floating holidays anyone can use anytime in a fiscal year, plus other national holidays.

Try to negotiate higher than 10. It’s extraordinarily low.
