Because people think the big benefit of being at a European company that balances the worse pay is more vacation, more reasonable working hours, better work-life balance, working autonomy.

But that's not true. It's the opposite.

I get far better vacation, working hours, work-life balance, working autonomy at North American companies. And better pay. So what's the benefit of working for a European company?

Do you work in the US or UK?

I read your original post as working in the UK for an American company, but now I'm not so sure

How much vacation did you take last year?

What are your working hours?
