Anyone else noticed that companies headquartered here (in industry, not consulting) have less than desirable PTO days? I’m interviewing with companies HQ’d there and they have 10 PTO days the entire year. WTF? While the companies with HQs out of state (remote roles) have 20+ day PTOs, or unlimited PTO.

10 days of PTO a year is insulting.
Unlimited PTO is always a scam so that companies don’t have to pay you your PTOs when you leave. Usually, those PTO days are capped at 20 too.

Agree OP. Everyone complained when EY switched to unlimited, but I took just as many weeks (if not more) as I did before. Just have to take accountability for actually scheduling it.
