1900 sounds like a lot, but it very quickly narrows. There are only 5 or so companies listed for programming jobs at non-consultancies (i.e. companies that develop their own products) that offer paid time off. None of those 5 look that interesting...

Seems more like incomplete data. Spot checked a few of the "programming" ones that did not have "paid vacation" listed, and sure enough, they do (example: https://convertkit.com/careers/).

Ah sorry, I added "paid vacation" option recently and I haven't updated ConvertKit since: https://twitter.com/remotehubio/status/1105455924985106434

Done now! https://remotehub.io/remote-companies-with-paid-vacation

Yes, you are right. I still need to work on the data a lot and it takes time! I have been thinking to open it up for public editing, but I don't know if people would be interested in this. There's also a question then if someone would think it would be fun to add some random data which is not true (should be edit history and rollback?)

It will get better and better over time as I reach out to more companies and fill in their details!

That sound like very wrong. I know personally of at least one, that it's listed, uses good technology, is hiring(Elixir) and offers 28 days paid off. The only complaint about that position(that would be fair) is that is not paid like being in SF.
