If it's really true that someone who just started work can immediately take three years maternal leave off, fully paid, and then be due 2.5 months accrued paid vacation time when they return, then I can't imagine how that could work. I don't know if it really works that way in Hungary though, or in Sweden for that matter.

In Sweden you wouldn't get 2.5 months of accrued paid vacation, it's more like 10 days, as the first 120 days (of 480) (pa/)maternal leave is counted towards vacation.

Then again you have the legal right to take 25 days of vacation per year, but not all of these have to be paid.

It doesnt work like that. The company doesnt pay you, the state does, and you get less. You do not get vacation time.
