Indeed it is a scam. Biggest problem with unlimited pto is that managers don’t care until you take what they feel is a disproportionate amount of time off. With a fixed number of PTO days, managers can tell you take time off , so they don’t have to pay out at end of fiscal year for unused days.
- pavel_lishin 4y agoThat money doesn't come out of the managers' paycheck; does it even come out of their budget? Do they care?
- imgabe 4y agoReal PTO is a liability that shows up on the company's balance sheet. I'm sure they care if their manager tells them, "hey we need to reduce the amount of outstanding PTO and your department is dragging us down, fix it".
- flatiron 4y agoAt least at my job it “comes out of my paycheck” and “budget” because my employees bill their time and all my KPIs are based on yadda yadda so yes short sighted managers could see it see it taking from both. Personally I’m not a numbers person and would rather concentrate on having a good team and producing a good product and let the numbers do what they do. I don’t even look at PTO requests and just approve them.
