Keep in mind that there are NO laws mandating vacation time in the US. They don't have to give you anything. We are like the only major economy in the world where there's no laws mandating vacation time. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_sta...by_country
Many companies only give one week off. If you're lucky you get 2 or more. For people that get a month off it's likely because they've worked at the company for a long time or have a position higher up the ladder with more perks. If you are entry-level and/or you don't work for a major company, good luck.
Thx for the link! Out of curiosity, would you happen to know if this includes the "main holiday" time around Christmas/NYE where companies usually allot 2 weeks?
