Have to use PTO for holidays?

Just graduated college and got a job at a small consulting firm. Was planning a trip for Thanksgiving weekend when I realised their holiday policy. Basically, no holidays, they would either have to be taken from my PTO, I would have to work that day, or I would have to compensate those hours before or after. I find this kind of crazy. I’m also regretting accepting this job even though I really needed it. Same with sick days, it’s either I use my vacation days or I work. What do you all think? Is this normal or is this insane?
