I think the "unlimited" thing started as just trying to get the vacation time off the books as a liability, and treating it as "no time off" happened for cultural reasons.
Ugly and hostile reasons, but still cultural -- I don't think there was ever an evil cabal of CEO's rubbing their hands over the thought of engineers working 50 weeks a year.
- danaris 6y agoThat's how a lot of these things work: There's (almost) never an actual conspiracy of people meeting in secret to orchestrate the terrible things that have been done to our society. It's just that given the way our version of capitalism has been set up for the last few decades, the incentives are structured such that already-rich people can get themselves even more money by finding more and more legal-if-shady ways to squeeze everyone else.
