Looking to leave EY and got offers from 2 different orgs one has unlimited PTO like EY does and one has 3 weeks. I was skeptical about unlimited PTO at first but ended up taking about 4 weeks off and no one cared. Now I’m wondering if I can go back to having a set number of vacation days

Yeah if between unlimited and 3 weeks I’d def take unlimited. But if it’s unlimited vs 5 weeks I’ll probably go with 5.

If the place has a utilization target it should keep usage of unlimited PTO in check anyways. If you are at a place without that built in limiter it might be more frowned upon to take a month off.
