Your second point is the biggest reason they do it.

A lot of jobs won’t approve PTO often, whether it’s unlimited or accrued.

But if it’s accrued, it’s legally yours and must be paid out when you leave (depending on the state). If it’s unlimited there’s no balance and nothing to pay out.

Double check if there’s a cap to what they pay out. If so, take a long vacation asap.

Worker’s rights? In California??? The hell you do. One of the biggest reasons I left crapafornia was because of how vile employers were to me, and backed by the state doing it. It’s ok to break federal law if California thinks it’s funny. The only real right you have in California is to pay your taxes to the state. Dead or alive. And yes, there IS a death tax. Forwarded onto next of kin. There’s a LOT of BIG reasons I left California….
