EY how much pto do you realistically take with the unlimited pto policy? I took 180 hours so far this year plus holidays. Is that feasible?

Just had a very uncomfortable conversation with a partner. I have some time off booked to go to my brother’s wedding (I’m the best man). We were chatting and I mentioned that my brother’s future husband is so nice and really a great guy, and we already consider him a member of our family. Partner’s tone immediately shifts and as we’re ending the call he says, “Okay, enjoy the time with your family at the civil ceremony.” Like… girl you live in California, you cannot be this backward.

This is more of a sanity check, but ending the billable year at around 2550 is absurdly high, right? I have two weeks to go and am easily going to hit 50 hours by then…I know this year has been bad for everyone (I’m in a rising 6th year in a finance group), but I feel like I’ve been extra crushed with work (And I’ve been removed off 3 matters earlier this year, due to lack of time). For what it’s worth, I was in 2800+ pace until I took a vacation in late August….
