If a company advertises unlimited PTO but then the company(or it's representatives) block my ability to take PTO, then yes it is a scam.
Why doesn't Atlassian keep track of requests/denial rates and then intervene since they're so benevolent and worried about the potential future employees well-being?
- ghaff 5y agoBut it would equally be a scam is I explicitly earned a given number of vacation days and couldn't take those. My main objection to "unlimited PTO" is that it really puts the onus on the company to set some expectations and stick with them, e.g. "While it will differ by workload/deadlines/etc., a normal expectation is that employees take 3 to 5 weeks in a typical year." (or whatever.)
