How many days annual leave do you get?

28 days paid leave, work all bank holidays at double time. Usually end up working Christmas Day/Boxing Day/New Year's Day unless I get someone to cover my shift.
 
In a 12 month calendar year, round about 120 days.
But I do two 4 month stints away from home, and i'm at work every day in those four months without a day off (half day Saturday and Sunday)
 
I get 25 days plus bank holidays. We can flex bank holidays to take when suits us. We also get our birthday off and have a company well being day. We can buy 5 days but we can't sell back, to encourage people to take all leave.
 
25 + bank holidays. Rises to 28 after 10 years service.
No option to buy more, but I’d do it if I could! Where I work, I’m the only one of 8 that uses their full entitlement every year. I’ve always thought it a bit odd when people don’t take the full amount.
Work to live, don’t live to work!
 
Laid off at xmas
365 and enjoying it, thinking of going back to work next year, or part time work, just for my sanity, and help to pay the bills.
 
32, but some of those are blocks of a week and you can’t split them up.
 
29 + Bank Holidays.

I can buy/sell up to an extra week too. I didn’t used to bother but after buying a week for a particularly busy year in 2022. I done it again this year.

I don’t miss the cash so will do it each year moving forward.
 
26 days, plus bank holidays. I then choose to buy an additional 10 days as well. We also have 2 volunteer days a year in which we can do something in the community.

I have had unlimited holidays (which is common amongst tech companies, especially in the US where the war for talent was hot a few years ago) but you find you actually take less rather than more, and so what starts as a benefit actually ends up benefiting the employer not the employee.

We can buy more, I think it’s up to 10 days. At the end of every year when I’m running low on days off, I say I’m going to do it next year.
Then when the time comes that you can opt in to it, i baulk at the (pretty obvious) price and decide against it. 🤣

It sounds brilliant in theory but I imagine you don't want to be seen as taking the P, bit like at a free bar where you end up not making the most of it?

Were the days off you had logged by the company so that they could compare staff? If so i imagine that would put pressure on as well.

No,I dont think the days were logged (I actually cant remember and it was only 2017) but as you say there was always the worry that people would think you were taking the ****.
 
30 days plus bank holidays. I work flexi time and can take up to 4 days a month through that if I have built the time up and there is availability.
