The pros, for the employee, are that they have a good work-life balance. You can take off without feeling the pressure of having to get approved or running out of PTO. For the employer, you don't have to pay off unused at the end of the year.

Very good points. We don’t necessarily have this unlimited model but I see employers, particular start ups, adopting this model.

Seeking for advice on career path from all pros in this bowl. Master degree in SCM and Business analytics. I have two years of data analysis and visualization experience in procurement. One year of technology sourcing experience so far. And that will continue if no surprises. Curious what kind of career path I can get by starting like this.

Today I messed up doing a delivery. The client was expecting the supplies at 3pm in the warehouse, however, there was an accident on the highway and traffic was insane. It slipped my mind to let them know about the delay. Now, they believe it was me being irresponsible and are threatening to fire me for not reporting on time and possible losing them a client. What can I do to fix the situation?

It’s very discouraging to continuously receive these rejection emails. With 9 years of supply chain experience, I am not sure why I would not be able to at least get an interview for entry level roles that require no experience. Not just this one pictured but others as well. I’ve applied to maybe 60 positions since May, both mid level and “entry” and no interviews. I’ve had my resume professionally re-written twice. Not sure where the disconnect is. Anyone else going through this same thing?
