Some of this is very boilerplate handbook wording but I gotta say some of these benefits are very average at best, especially the time off situation. This is from the perspective of a US government worker, where I regularly see my friends get hired in the private sector and receive much better time off.
And at least in southern New England, there's some straight up illegal rules in here, notably discussion of wages. Around here you cannot be ordered by anyone not to disclose what you make.
The time off situation is literally just the bare minimum legal amount in Canada.
I think the policy is pretty weak for such a well-loved (up until this week) company. Guess that's the way the industry works: put up with mediocre pay and benefits because you're "doing what you love," or if I'm feeling really jaded I'd say something like "abusing the workers' passions for the industry."
