    It’s weird, I’ve got unlimited PTO and have taken more time in a year than I did overall at any of the jobs I’ve been at, and they’ve been super accommodating with a medical issue I have.

    Last year I took over 30 PTO days, I’ve been lucky to get 8-12 days yearly at previous gigs. Unlimited PTO can be amazing if you have decent leadership.

      That isn’t “normal” though. Part of the reason that companies like unlimited PTO is that typically workers take less PTO when unlimited is offered.

      I had 8 weeks paid per year in my last job, so rolling in to this one with unlimited I pretty much do the same. But for sure I’m a bit of an anomaly. I rarely see others taking time.
