US doesn't have paid public holidays?
Not legally mandated paid holidays. Your employer is not required to give you PTO, sick leave, or paid holidays.
can you feel the freedom? Land of the free!
My husband applied for a high level management position at a nonprofit and they only sent him the benefits info after his 3 interviews and after he settled on pay. Turns out they only offered 6 days of holidays a year: Christmas Eve and Black Friday didn’t make the list. They offered him 1K more money, twice, but wouldn’t budge on the holiday pay. Fucking incredible if you ask me.
Nationwide mandated paid holidays + paid leaves, meaning no one get left behind.
