Vacation & Paid Time Off

does quite seem like enough untll you have been there over 5 years

Vacation starts at about 2-3 weeks and ramps up fairly quickly. The number of weeks you can take is really up to your work group. Accrued vacation hours are also used for sick leave so you tend to save time faster than you can take it if you only take about 3 weeks vacation a year. There is a maximum year to year carry over but you can cash out the rest.

paid time off is above average

401k matching up to 4%. Profit sharing 0-20 %, rarely gets to 20% and the average would be 7-9% of your base salary. Very difficult to get other bonus unless you are in sales. No other great benefits, paid time off is very average and no sick days. Typical benefits are offered health/dental/vision/life insurance.

Texas Instrument's vacation and paid time off is probably better than industry average based upon my experience.

Companies are shifting to use it or lose it policies for vacation and this company continues to allow roll over time.

You never get refused if you ask off for vacation

For me it was the best I ever had because its based on the time of service and I worked for many years so I was happy.

They have a concept of time bank - where you "bank" a certain number of hours every month that can be used for paid time off of any kind (vacation, bereavement, sick leave, etc). Good part is that your monthly time and hours go up with your years with the company. Bad part is that you can only carry over a certain number of hours into the next calendar year, and any banked hours above that limit are paid out at ony 75% of the salary rate. So, in effect, if you work too hard for the company, the company penalizes you and takes back 25% of money it would have owed you...
