Curious to hear from anyone who has experience with a discretionary or unlimited PTO policy. We're considering the pros and the cons and would like to hear from anyone that is contemplating it or has adapted such a policy. A few questions that come to mind.
-
Did the policy feel genuinely flexible, or was there pressure (spoken or unspoken) not to take time off?
-
Was the policy extended to all roles, including field teams, or just office staff?
-
How did time-off requests affect project schedules and team dynamics?
-
Did the policy improve work-life balance, or create confusion and inconsistency?
-
Were there any unintended consequences-positive or negative?
