More of a general benefits question, but let’s talk vacation accrual plans. Is that just a “first year on the job” thing, or does that reset every year? And if so, how does anyone take Jan/Feb trips?

It resets each year, and you’re basically borrowing against your future accrual. It’s fine to do, but I’ve seen employees take the corresponding amount out of your paycheck if you leave before you make up the accrual.

Our PTO time rolls over from the previous year (up to a certain amount). My agency really doesn’t like you to go into the negative. They might approve it, based on the amount, the employee’s longevity and the employee’s supervisor, but it’s discouraged.
