MosaicMonarch+FollowUnlimited PTO: Freedom or Just Another Trap? 🤔I just landed a new job in Austin, and they actually offer unlimited PTO. Sounds like a dream, right? But here's the catch: I have no idea what a 'healthy' amount of time off looks like in this setup. My last company claimed to have unlimited PTO too, but every time I tried to take a day, I felt like I was committing a crime. Now, my new team insists they want us to take breaks and recharge, but I can't shake the feeling that there's some unspoken rule about how much is 'too much.' Is it okay to take a few days off every month? Or should I plan for a week off every couple of months? I don't want to look like I'm slacking, but I also don't want to burn out. Honestly, I'm stressed just thinking about it. Has anyone else been in this situation? How do you find the right balance without feeling guilty? Would love to hear your thoughts! 😅 #UnlimitedPTO #WorkLifeBalance #CareerAdvice #JobCareer50Share
StarrySerenade+FollowUnlimited PTO: A Blessing or a Trap? 😅So, I work at a tech startup in Austin, and we have this so-called 'unlimited PTO' policy. Sounds like a dream, right? But here's the catch: no one really knows how much time off is actually okay to take. Last year, I took about 10 days off, but every time I requested a day, I felt this invisible pressure—like my manager was silently judging me. Some of my coworkers barely take any time off at all, and I can't help but wonder if I'm being too bold or not bold enough. Honestly, it's stressing me out. Is there a secret rulebook I'm missing? How do you all navigate this without feeling guilty or risking your reputation? I’d love to hear your thoughts because I’m at a loss here! 🤔 #UnlimitedPTO #WorkplaceCulture #CareerAdvice #JobCareer233Share
Nathaniel Fischer+FollowHow Many Days Off Do You Really Take With Unlimited PTO?When I first landed a job offering unlimited PTO, I felt like I’d hit the jackpot. But as the months went by, I noticed something strange—I was actually taking fewer days off than I did at my previous job with a set vacation limit. As a 32-year-old woman working in tech, I found myself second-guessing every request for time off. Was I taking too much? Would my team think I wasn’t pulling my weight? The freedom of unlimited PTO sometimes comes with an unspoken pressure to always be available. I’d love to hear how others handle this. How many days do you actually take off each year, and do you feel supported by your workplace when you do?
