Another place where process engineers seem to be doing pretty well is in vacation time. A whopping 87.5% report that they get three or more weeks vacation a year, and almost 34% say they get more than four weeks. In 2009, 84% reported three or more weeks vacation a year, and 28% said they were entitled to more than four weeks. Those bigger numbers in the upper brackets probably also reflect the seniority of more and more of the process automation employees out there, reflected by the fact that 77% of our respondents reported more than 10 years in process control, and a full 23% said they'd been at it for more than 30 years.
