[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m a stodgy elder Millennia. New company has “unlimited PTO.”

How much time off is actually reasonable? Expected?

Trying to MMOB but employee who started at the same time has taken 6 weeks off in a 4 month period. Non consecutive like work 2 weeks, take a week off.

I’ve taken 2 days for being sick.

Years of limited PTO makes me fearful of taking time. Clearly I’m doing it wrong.  What’s the norm?

My company has unlimited PTO, but in the last few years amended the policy to say that after taking 30 days off in a year you should check in with your manager before taking additional time off. I see 30 days at the limit. We also get 11-12 federal holidays plus 3-4 additional days between Christmas and New Year. Additionally, in the US we have 10 sick days in addition to bereavement leave and 24 weeks of maternity leave for women. [/quote]

Lots of companies only give it for women. But let you use  a combo of STD/LTD/Sick Days and FMLA. My wife got six months off when she gave birth this way. The man did not give birth to anything.  [/quote]
