We get a lot of BS holidays like MLK, presidents day and Columbus day, but I'd much prefer the day after Thanksgiving or the day after Christmas.

Ditto. We also get 4 hrs sick leave per pay period.

Yes feds do get "sick leave," but I hate it. I would much, much prefer like 3 "personal days" and then also having short term disability or maternity or something like that for more serious issues. Sick leave is VERY abused by feds who've been there for a long time (and thus have hundreds of hours saved) whereas younger employees can't save enough for maternity or when things go wrong (broken leg, surgery etc). Most fed women in their 20s only have enough sick leave for maybe 4 weeks of maternity leave.

As a fed you also get sick leave though, don't you? And personal days?

Feds do not get personal days--annual and sick only .

Some Fed offices give personal days and are closed the day after Thanksgiving, etc.

$50k base + commission. Work in the office four days a week then work from home on the fifth day. 3 weeks PTO per year.

20 vacation days, 3 family care days
no tracked sick days, you take as needed

Also two floating holidays per year, and 7.5 regular holidays.

22 days vacation, 12 sick days per year.

Is that inclusive of sick leave? Or do you have a separate sick leave allowance? What about personal days?

PTO means "all-in."

Dozens of threads on how much you get paid, but I'm interested in how your benefits stack up against your pay, and particularly how much paid time off you get. My salary is on the lower end of what I could earn with other organizations (I work for a non profit) but my PTO and some of my other benefits are great. I'd like to switch jobs but am reluctant to give up the paid time off.

So, what do you consider yourself to be well paid (relative to others in your industry) and how much PTO do you get? What about other benefits?

I'll start - non profit, not well paid, get 8.5 hours per pay period = 29 days per year, plus all federal holidays and the day after Thanksgiving (sick leave and personal leave and vacation are all rolled in).
