Unlimited PTO is a scam

100%

So is work life balance

First two are absurd. For #3, SF is the most expensive area, per roberthalf, the cost of living adjustment is 39% above national average. Show us the numbers so we can verify.

Come to BDO where our PTO is taken away and we can “donate” our PTO to others.

I would never want unlimited PTO - it’s a scam - people end up using less time off than people with a specific number of PTO days that expire. With unlimited PTO, people end up feeling too guilty to take it or take more than their peers do and end up getting penalized down the line during the review cycle for not hitting utilization goals.

Don’t go for unlimited PTO or FTO as GT calls it. You will always be scheduled on jobs and will not be able to take time off. And then you will not accrue any time off to be paid when you leave.

WTF. So I can work more then someone else can take my PTO? That’s how the flex Friday died. Best ppl always overworked, and the so-so always under. Bullshit.
