Work Reform

A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.
Our Philosophies:
- All workers must be paid a living wage for their labor.
- Income inequality is the main cause of lower living standards.
- Workers must join together and fight back for what is rightfully theirs.
- We must not be divided and conquered. Workers gain the most when they focus on unifying issues.
Our Goals
- Higher wages for underpaid workers.
- Better worker representation, including but not limited to unions.
- Better and fewer working hours.
- Stimulating a massive wave of worker organizing in the United States and beyond.
- Organizing and supporting political causes and campaigns that put workers first.

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.
That and they don't have to pay out unused PTO since there technically isn't any.
