Yeah, no.
Google is 3 weeks/year, and has been that way for as far as I have known it.
KLA+ (formerly, KLA-Tencor) has several (IIRC, 3) weeks of sick days and vacation COMBINED, so if you get sick, no vacation for you.
Those are representative examples.
Not true. Google starts at 3 weeks/year but that increases quickly after a few years. I was getting 5 weeks/year when I left.
Which is how it effectively works, except usually managers are less direct.
Just looked it up and the number of days increases with seniority at Google.
KLA, ASML, TSMC are companies that are huge globally in their fields.
The field being semiconductor design and fabrication.
Whatever device you're reading this on almost certainly has components made with machinery by one (or all) of those.
However, I too have never heard of KLA. Somehow it never gets mentioned alongside those other companies. Maybe it's similar to how everyone knows about Microsoft and Apple, and even my mother knows what Linux is, but almost no one has heard of Green Hills Software?
KLA makes wafer inspection and process control equipment and has very little (if any) competition in what they do. They're big.
As in, they have 10B revenue and 15,000 employees.
That's roughly 1/3 of what ASML is (ASML has 30B revenue and 45K employees).
It's more like your grandma knowing about Nintendo, but not Valve.
