With the background of coming from Finland and now living in San Francisco, I have to say that I'm a supporter of the "Default Employee Rules" section when it comes to working hours and fixed vacation time. While unlimited vacation policy is common among SF/SV startups it drives people to work all the time and not actually take holidays (or you're working on your holiday). No matter how much time you spend at the office people need rest.
The second author of the model is Michael Widenius, a Finn and co-founder of MySQL.
