Does PwC payout all unused PTO when one leaves or is there a limit on the payout? Dont want to find myself in the same situation a friend was in. Shes in industry and put in her two weeks to find out they only payout up to 100 hrs unused PTO and they wouldnt let her use the remaining in her two weeks notice. She lost out on over 50 hrs!!!! Is capping unused PTO payout common? PwC

PwC PTO capped after 167 (?) hours. When I left, I got paid all unused 167 hours. As long as you have PTO balance, you will get paid all. Good luck.

176 (22 days). Ignore that 45 hr a week nonsense! Just imagine you putting 8 hrs a day on your time sheet as vacation and that’s what you get paid

No, but payout is usually driven off of 45 hour work week and not 40.

Double check the contract. Usually at the firms it’s salary/45 hr week to get the $/hr for PTO payout.

Agree this depends on state laws. California has one of the best policies, but otherwise it’s up to the companies policy assuming it’s state legal.

I could be wrong, but I believe the PTO payout is also based on when it was accrued. I.e. if you are a manager now, but accrued 80 hours as an associate and you never went under 80 hours of PTO at any point, 80 of your hours will be paid out at your associate pay

No it’s not at Associate pay if you are a Manager. At 176 hours it is basically 22 work days = one month at your current pay.

If you have maxed out at 176 hours, you would receive that gross payment for 176 hours.

Happy Halloween, my fellow Tech Pros! I love this Holiday, anyone come up with a creative costume to wear at work?

Hi everyone,
I was hoping someone could give me some advice. I’ve been taking care of my extremely sick (literally on the verge of dying) dog. I work from home so it’s not too much of a nuisance but I feel distracted all day long and can hardly get anything done because I worry about my dog. I feel like I’d benefit from a day off or even half a day off but I’ve only been working for my firm for a month now, plus I have “discretionary time off.” Would it be okay for me to ask for a day off?
