Depends on the comnpany. It can mean 15-20 days PTO at some, can mean 30-40 at others. What you must remember is, there will be those who take more PTO than others, and some who take less. Be the person that takes more than the average, make it clear during hiring your PTO expectations. And be sure to take a lengthy amount of time off in the first 6 months of employment. Tell them about this prior to signing on. I have done this twice. It has worked both times. If the company is uncomfortable with the notion of at least 28 PTO days, or you taking 15 PTO days 2 months after getting hired. Then its a red flag IMO (assuming they led you to believe they had splendid PTO)
Company I work at doesn't seem to notice/care if people take off 35-40 PTO days, not including the paid holidays they also provide. Not many do this, though. Most people take 15-25 PTO days. Only one other person I know takes 30+ like I do
- maximp 9y ago> be sure to take a lengthy amount of time off in the first 6 months of employment. Tell them about this prior to signing on. What's your rationale? Out of curiosity, are you an engineer?
- handbanana 9y agoWell, if they are OK with the time off before you sign then it shows they do value time off. And I like to set the tone with new employers - they can expect I take off a decent amount of PTO. To be clear, I've only worked for employers who advertise their PTO as very good/unlimited. As to your last question, yes.
