My last two jobs have been unlimited PTO, and going forward, it's a requirement for me.
Last job (Godaddy in sunnyvale, one of the nicest places I've worked in) didn't have any tracking. For 3+ days you emailed manager and team. Current job's the same, except you enter 3+ days in a software. At both places, I took ~20 days to go to India, and another 20 days at least rest of the year. More importantly, my manager can expect me to take a day off after a long night of pages.
At previous jobs, the 20 day India trip had to be reduced, or some unspoken agreement with manager, because I had 15 or so vacation days. I'm too spoilt now to handle that shit again. I haven't come across a mandatory minimum, but I take off a healthy amount anyway and I'm unimportant enough that the team can make do with 10 months of me.
