At Booz, does PTO carryover if you don’t use it within a year?

Yes. Depending on your level you max out though. E.g., associates stop accruing at 208 hours. And bereavement days are based on the distance needed to travel I think. Up to 5 days

It does carry over but you accrue time instead of getting 3 or 4 weeks at the beginning of the year and having to use it all. Once you reach a max, you stop accruing time. The amount of time you accrue each month and your max depends on your level and years of service.

Yes there’s bereavement leave.

All of this is in the benefits guide btw.

Also, how many bereavement days do you get at Booz?

Consultant level

Bereavement is 3 days by policy unless you have to travel 150+ miles, then it's 5. Only for immediate family. No aunts, uncles, cousins, or grandparents.

Word, not even grandpa and grandma etc. Wow! Do they even ask for any sort of documentation?

Hello, I have accepted an offer at a competitor company and sent in my resignation letter. My start date is 5 weeks from now so I put in my end date 4 weeks from date letter was signed. The manager said I had to leave the job in 2 days and the company can only play 2 weeks of work. Is it normal how they do that?

So annoyed,

So my work has unlimited PTO -global company. I'm based in uk and line manager is in USA. he said I'm taking to much time off and has brought it up with upper management. I have taken in total to date 22 days with 8 (4 include an operation) more to go. My performance is above target. I just feel blindsided.

I was on a tour but where I asked a couple of older women sitting behind me to speak softly as it was 6:30 am in the morning. After that they kept saying loudly that i’m smelling and that i need to use deo and that i should keep my arm down. I confronted them later and they said respect your elders?? I want to ruin their vacation. What else can I do?

Hey small agency friends with kids! Quick question. Our agency’s family health care is expensive (ranges from $1700/mon with normal deductible to $1100/mon with super high deductible).

How much stock do you put on benefits? I have two offers with stark differences in benefits. Job 1: role I want, but benefit sucks (2 weeks paternity leave, 20% coinsurance). Job 2: role is okay but higher level and great benefits (16 weeks paternity, 0% coinsurance, 5 more days of vacation). Total comp is the same though. I wonder if I should just focus on role but Job 2 is a large company, so I can move around after 2-3 years I’d expect. Thoughts?
