Lets put the numbers out there objectively for others reading this.

Previously after 4 years you got 20 days per year. Then you got 25 at year 6+.

Google isn't nearly as nice of a place to work at as people make it out to be.

As an example they will finally increase vacation from 15days to 20days on April 1st this year.

The media reports this as "on top of already lavish perks Googlers are now getting 20 days of PTO a year!".

Gee whiz amazing. An increase from 15 days of PTO. If only we didn't much more than that in my much lower quality of life home country as a standard for tech workers.

And sorry if this sounds a bit spoilt. I should be grateful to work at a large megacorp in this economy right? It's just that Google isn't any better in terms of working conditions than any other big tech company. In fact in general it's a little bit worse yet there's propaganda movies (The Internship) about how great it is to work at Google.

It's a job. No one else seems to want to acknowledge it.
