I'd like to see how my PTO policy stacks up. The university I work for lets us buy back up to an additional 20 PTO days beyond our standard amounts. Payment is deducted evenly from each paycheck through the year. This is a no-brainer because I use these days to take better paying jobs from my side hustle gigs. We can also donate PTO, but I can't imagine many people do that? Do any of you have similar programs?

I work for a non-profit community health center. The pay is not always up to other industry averages so they have to throw other benefits at us. We don't have a "buy" program per say but they generally just throw time off at us. We can't carry PTO over to the next year so they let us donate it to be set aside for employees who experience life changing events (death of a spouse/parent/child, major health issues, or other major incidents).
For context I have 5 weeks of PTO and get 14 holidays. I negotiated an extra week when I started 4 yrs ago, but new employees get 4 weeks when they start.

Do you all see a compelling future in your tax career? I’ll go first, I don’t see a compelling future working for a large PA firm in the long run because you have to work more as you move up. However, I do see a compelling future by using my knowledge and skills to open my own firm/business and work less hours as long as I make enough money which is $75k, or if I do work long hours, it’s because I want to.
