Worked for a fortune 100 company. 28 days of PTO and 4 weeks paid paternity leave. Not all private gigs have bad benefits.

How long did you have to be there before you got that?

I know there are some private gigs where you get more vacation days then we do and family leave etc but they are the exception. Especially if you haven’t been with the company for 10+ years. The Fortune 500 Company I was at before the Air Force you didn’t get one week til after your first year and you didn’t get 10 days til after 5.

I started with 18 days PTO, plus 8 holidays. After 3 years you bumped up to 23 days, and then 28 days after 5 years. The paternity leave was for anyone who worked for the company because they can’t really discriminate a benefit like that based on time of service. I know my benefits were much better than some of my friends working in similar professional settings. My company also spent a lot of time in the news in a poor light so perhaps they were trying to turn morale around.
 
My wife is a low-mid level manager for a fortune 10 company and has 10+ years with them. She gets 28 days of PTO and 8ish holidays.
 
A lot of tech companies like the one I was at had “unlimited” sick and vacation mixed. The only problem was that you couldn’t accrue anything so no payout if you don’t use it. Also it was up to the manager. Some are stingy and some let you take all the time you wanted

Follow-up question for non-essentials: Scheduled to work on a holiday, but placed in furlough status. Would you,
A. get the holiday pay as if you had worked it?
B. Have no leave charged with the day off?

B is exactly how holiday leave works currently, but when that is mixed in with a furlough with backpay I have no idea how that'll end up.
 
Regardless of the “available funds” that the FAA magically has now around the holidays, doesn’t the FAA legally go into a shutdown, at midnight, and all leave is classified as furlough?
