Unlimited PTO is a company cost saving measure being disguised as a perk. SHRM studies show that employees take less PTO if on an unlimited policy vs a define policy.

Spread the word amongst your peers, apply
pressure to HR leadership.

Nah, it's a total scam. If it was truly unlimited, you would be able to take a whole year off, wouldn't you?

Yeah, there's a lot of unspoken pressure to not abuse it. I almost feel like you get looked down upon for taking time off. I heard of someone that got let go because they took too much time off. So, is it really unlimited then?

smart

That’s true. I was looking at my year so far and I only took 7 days off this year. Time to take those unlimited leaves.
