Tips

culture
Chinese statutory paid annual leave (年假) is 5 days for 1-10 years of service, 10 days for 10-20 years, 15 days for 20+ years — quite low by Western standards. In practice many private companies offer additional 福利 (benefits leave) on top, though tech firms' 996 culture often makes taking it socially fraught.
usage
(dài, 'carry/with') + (xīn, 'salary') = 'with salary'. Compare (wúxīn jià, unpaid leave). Synonym 年假 (dàixīn niánjià) emphasizes annual leave specifically; 带薪休假 is the broader term covering all paid time off.
