What is an appropriate amount of PTO to be provided with an offer at a big four for a senior consultant? I have 20 days plus holidays at my current smaller firm but want to make the switch to EY. Is it reasonable to get the same amount as I highly value being able to take vacations every year. Thank you!

Unlimited PTO = work while on PTO. Enjoy!!

Doesn’t sound enjoyable…

Yep EY is unlimited, but then judge you on full untilization, so then when you take PTO you risk your utilization. The company always wins.

So in theory you just lose?

It’s not unlimited; the proper term is flexible.

I’ve been in my current role for almost 4 years. While I am generally happy, & have flexibility with time off for personal matters, there are things that bother me. I have an offer for way more money, manager title (which I want), much larger bonus & IVF benefit is better. However, I’m in the middle of stims and it is STRESSFUL. Part of me can’t imagine taking on a new role while I’m in the middle of this. But also feel like I can’t pass it up
