How many PTO days do European's get a year? I'd like to compare to where I'm at after starting a new job here in the US (US native).

20-30 paid days depending on country and factors like your seniority.

Add to that unlimited sick time (there are conditions though).

Oh right, yes. In Poland the employer pays 80% for your sick time up to a month and then the social security takes over.
