Nope. Just ask for what you want and take what you need.

If you work at the agency and can take a day paid day off I am not sure what it matters to you. It would only mean anything to a freelancer who could bill a full day of work and not work

They just said they had unlimited PTO!

If you give them, and implement them immediately

Well, "unlimited" PTO isn't REALLY unlimited, and you usually still have to put in for the time and a bit in advance, whereas I think you can take comp time right away.

Joining a big firm next week as fully remote lateral and flying out to home office for orientation. The schedule has me in office until 4:15. I’ve already been told I won’t have any actual work. Depending on how many people are there and how it feels, I was planning to stay an hour extra but should I hang around the office until later? First time visiting this city so it’d be great to take in some sights too (although that’s not a priority of course).
