Plural of anecdote is not data unless you have data :)

Any Netflix-level stats?

Well I can 100% back up what OP said. So now you have two data points.

And ironically, Netflix doesn't have any data because they don't track vacation time, not even just for data purposes.

The best "data" I can offer is that everyone I knew there took ample vacation except one person, who hated his family and like the excuse of "I have to work".

Likewise, are all of these dismissals of Netflix's policy backed by data rather than anecdotes?
