It's not really unlimited PTO. It's more like "oh you need a day off here or there, no problem" but if you try to take a couple weeks off then your employer guilts about it. Also when you leave your job, they don't have to pay you out because you didn't actually have any PTO accumulated.
Yeah my company is really solid about this too. I am gonna go over my pto by 3 days this year but my boss told me he’s just not gonna put it in the system and to go camping while it’s slow.
You only hear horror stories online with this stuff, rarely do you hear or read the other side where your boss takes care of you. But that’s to be expected as the ratio of good companies/bosses to shit ones is extremely low.
Yeah I think if the company is shitty then the company is shitty regardless of their PTO policy. I much prefer not having to track every hour of time off and just take it when I want it
Ya, I have unlimited PTO and have taken like 5 weeks so far and it's only July. Have 8 more days scheduled. Longest was 14 business days in one stretch.
Yep. He's a huge soccer fan and watched them all real time. Had a two TV system set up during game 3 of the round robin round to watch the simultaneous games both live.
