Here in the US, it's common practice to give no vacation time for a little
while. After six months to a year, usually a week or two. By the time
someone has been with a company long enough to earn 5-6 weeks of vacation
a
year, they are about to retire. That is if they didn't get layed off and
had to go back to a week or two of vacation with some other company.

Where I work the maximum is still four weeks of vacation per year. You have
to be with the company 10 years to get to that level.
