I just received my offer letter for PwC! I am nervous about needing to take time off, which I told the recruiter up front about, along with specific dates. I understand accruing time, but he said to not worry about it, it won’t be a problem. If I do not have the 3 weeks needed for PTO, can you use your sick leave, or go negative in PTO?

That should be illegal, I'm secondhand enraged for you! Whenever I use my PTO, my manager is always respectful of my time and won't assign me to anything new until after I get back from vacation. I work hard to get everything done early in the week before leaving so I don't have to worry about rushing around at the last minute.
I agree .. however I don’t want my PTO privileges to be revoked so I want to make sure I get everything done for them :(
Has this been a pattern? Document it in writing including the requested time and that it’ll put you past eod
“Will to take this on but flagging it’ll leave me working past eod. In the future would like to discuss what occurred in this instance, so we can stick to 8 hours of work in a day so I can continue sustainably contributing to our success”.
You probably have to do it this time but in the future can push back if it’s a pattern
Do you have a mentor in the workplace they can probably give you better advice
Definitely a pattern with this account. The client is in Europe and they have no sense of time… account side doesn’t do anything to protect creative. Document it then share it with who?
That’s when I send an email and make it look like it was automated saying I’m on PTO. Please contact whomever else. Because if you’re about to sign off, that means your PTO has officially started.
