My previous company recently changed PTO policies, and the result was that it depended on your state. My memory is a little fuzzy, but it basically went something like: In some states, all PTO was immediately removed from the bank as of the change date and those folks immediately moved to unlimited. In MA, removing accrued PTO wasn't possible, but it was possible to rewrite policy to disallow carryover from one year to another, so people MA stayed on the normal plan until Jan 1, at which point they'd have 0 PTO due to nothing carrying over and they'd be moved to unlimited. In CA, neither option was allowed, so folks remained on the normal plan until Jan 1, and then were paid out for unused PTO and then moved to unlimited.
