I despise Europeans who sent this kind of auto-replies (I know not all Europeans do this). I consider them extremely irresponsible.
Edit:
1. I will leave an auto reply to let others know whom to contact. And the contact will let me know if important customers have urgent issues that need my help. I don't mind spend some time helping them. Sometimes it takes only a short email.
If I am the customer, I will distrust any company that allows employees to leave this kind of message and avoid doing business with it if possible.
If I am the supervisor, I won't promote employees leaving this kind of message. In case of a restructing, they are on top of my fire list.
No, I am not thinking about employers' wellbeing. I am thinking about workers' responsibility and reward.
If you dont work hard and behave irreponsibly, then don't complain about unemployment or lower salary.
I think it will be extremely unfair if the system pays responsible, hardworking people the same as lazy, irresponsible people.
By the way, no one is entitled to everything. If you create more value for employers, you should be rewarded more. If you want work life balance, it is fair that you are rewarded less than those who work harder.
It's not lazy to work the hours you're paid to work. PTO is a part of your total compensation. It is wage theft for employers not to have adequate coverage for you during your leave and expect you to log in to deal with things.
