Can't wait to get my unlimited PTO paid out!
- pavlov 8y agoOne of the reasons why "unlimited PTO" is a bit of a scam.
- wolco 8y agoNever been in this situation but couldn't you just take off a few months with unlimited vacation or even a few years.
- reportingsjr 8y agoYou are pretty much guaranteed to get let go if you tried to do this without having a very good reason and a very understanding boss. Even though it is called "unlimited" that doesn't mean you actually get to take unlimited vacation.
- grimjack00 8y agoThe term my employer is using is "unaccrued".
- ryandrake 8y agoSo, it’s like “unlimited” Internet data plans.

- Zutano 8y agoProductivity is productivity. If you take so much time off that you aren't getting anything done, you're going to be fired.
- Reedx 8y agoSee, the problem is you're interpreting words like "unlimited" by their dictionary definition.
- Zutano 8y agoI've personally had a good experience so far with "unlimited PTO". I've been working at a company with that policy for a year now, and I've never had an issue taking as much time off as I need for vacations, personal days, etc. It helps that my supervisors are pretty cool about it.
- Loughla 8y ago>It helps that my supervisors are pretty cool about it. This is why I prefer actual accrued PTO policies. I should not even have to consider whether or not my supervisor cares that I take a day off. It should just be agreed upon that I am able to take x time under x circumstances on day 1 of my employment. Worrying whether or not my supervisor is cool with is just tastes too much like relying on the largess of some benevolent overlord.
- RandallBrown 8y agoJust take a couple weeks off before you put in your two weeks. Obviously doesn't work if you get laid off though.
