How much PTO does everyone have? Anyone with unlimited? How do you like it? I only have 15 days of PTO per year.

Not unlimited, but pretty generous at 25 days, plus volunteer hours and a floating holiday.

I think 15 days is pretty standard, that's what I've got. My understanding of unlimited PTO is that it gets complicated as, of course, you have to have every day approved. So if you're asking for what's considered an excessive amount it runs into what a friend of mine referred to as a wall of emotional blackmail. That doesn't sound great.

Honestly I haven’t heard a single good thing about unlimited PTO yet

I have 20 days of PTO. We also get a paid day to volunteer and summer Fridays, where we get out a couple of hours earlier. Overall, a nice mix of time off perks.

We have "unlimited" PTO. As in, we don't really get to take any days off because it is never "the right time." I am so envious of people who get unlimited PTO at actual decent companies where work-life balance is respected.

I get 21 days and have to use 3 over Christmas and 1 for birthday! Doesn’t feel like enough.
But I’m in England where the minimum is 20 days

18 days PTO, 10 sick days, 9 holidays, 1 volunteer day

I currently have 12 days of vacation time. This doesn’t count mental health or sick days. We also have a pre-generous time off schedule around the holidays.

25 days. 10 holidays 2 personal holidays and 2 volunteer days

My current salary is under market average for my position but based off my coworkers’ negative experiences with asking for raises/promotions, I’m not really sure how to go about starting the conversation with my manager. There’s also a rumor going around that the company is going to scale back on our marketing efforts even though our VP tells us a different story. Either way I need more money and I just want to have that conversation before I begin looking for a new job.
