“Unlimited” vacation… Login/Join

I saw a meme video about this.

1) they found employees took less pto under “unlimited” pto policy.

2) you still need approval from your manager. And, heck, that looks like a self-identification system telling the company they can easily get rid of you in a layoff without missing you.

3) they won’t pay out for any pto when laid off or you resign.

I’d take what you have on the books before this and take those vacations. Next, I’d keep the last set of rules on PTO and use that as your guideline when asking for PTO. And you can always justify that you’re not asking for more than what was due under the old system. But consider any carry over rules as over and done with. It’s use or lose every year.



"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.

My guys were just the opposite when it came to PTO . Except for the guys that wanted time off to hunt , most of them didn't want to take off out of fear of missing out on overtime . Fridays were a guaranteed 10 hrs so nobody ever took a long weekend . Some of those hogs racked up over 1000 hours of OT every year .

Nope. He front loaded his productivity by not taking the vacation previously. Possibly was more productive during his relatively prime working years than those closer to retirement.

Yes, I understand what you are saying.
