Unlimited. Yes I’m using more than from when we had set amounts of days. Most don’t.

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

Just so I understand - what do you mean by “are they paid”? I feel like an unpaid time off policy is just a firing.

Ha! True.

Unlimited ❤️

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

Unlimited (but actually encouraged to take them). Week off in summer for burnout. Two weeks for the holidays. Even Juneteenth now.

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?

From that conversation, I saw instant red flags. Any thoughts?

I lateraled from a small firm to regional big law last year. I was told that my offer was commensurate with class year (5th year). The firm recently increased first year salary, with a 5% increase for all other attorneys. My original salary was equal to the new first year salary. The difference between my new salary and a first year is now $10k. I think it is fairly obvious that the hiring partner was not truthful with me. How would you address this? Is another lateral move my only option?

I made a couple errors at a new job. An important document to be distributed had wrong information on it, which was proofread by 2 other people.

I was written up over all this last week, fired this week. There’s a lot more to this but I think it’s because the DM doesn’t like me.
