First year in my career I’m doing the same.

Unlimited and of course paid. Also encouraged to really take the time off we need. Having an HQ in Sweden helps set the tone.

24 days base, 3 bonus summer days, 40 hrs sick time and some nice family leave packages...though was offered more days recently by my manager if I want to take more time before the end of the year.

Seems like advertising is one of the only industries heading towards the European work-life balance. Stoked.

Where are you at?

Most HRs these days ask for previous salary slips/ bonus/hike letters without even quoting their offer. Should we proceed with what they want? Is it ethical? Any pros/cons
