[quote=Anonymous]I just started at a company with “unlimited” FTO. (I still don’t quite understand the distinction). I’m a consultant and the guidance is maintain a certain percentage of productive billable hours. In my case, I just recall recent jobs and the amount of PTO I accrued and follow that as a general guideline. In addition to taking two days off a week after I started (I’d planned a long weekend trip last August), I’m taking Fourth of July week off (four days) and a week off in September (milestone birthday trip to Napa). I will take two weeks off at the holidays. I know that companies use this tactic to disincentivize people from taking time off and to avoid having to pay it out at termination. I am still going to take time off. Life is short.[/quote]
