To me a policy of unlimited PTO looks great from the outside when companies are trying to win over new employees and have a pissing contest around who has the best perks. However, its unlimited until it impacts your teams and the role that you are actually employed to do. I agree that if you want to be flexible you implement a flexible PTO policy that still has a limit that can be built up over time. Exceptions to that limit can be granted.
