My coworker left to go work at LogicMonitor in Santa Barbara, CA (https://www.logicmonitor.com/careers/ https://www.logicmonitor.com/careers/). Back in 2013 (not sure of the current policy) they offered unlimited vacations, and a $1000 bonus if you took a full week off and did not check email or do any work while you were out. He described it as a dinner buffet...in theory it looks like you could eat 10 steaks and 20 pizzas, but in reality even though it's unlimited most people stick to the same portion sizes they would at a regular restaurant because your stomach is still the same size. He said that for him the big 1-2 week vacations were still limited by 1) cost, 2) his wife's work schedule, 3) kids' school schedule. The one difference that having unlimited vacation made is that people didn't have to lie about being sick all the time to take 1 or 2 days here and there.
