In France 5 weeks PTO is the minimum. But depending on where you and with who you work, taking a leave can be seen very differently.

You can also have more than 5 weeks but it hides overtime work behind that needs to be accounted else the company can be sued for it. So they sell you a nice job with lots of PTO but in fact they don’t appreciate that you may enjoy what they owe you.

That is American horrors. Fucking land of the free 🦅🦅🦅

That’s the sentiment for “unlimited PTO”. They give it to you, but you know they don’t really mean it.

That sucks. I’ve managed at a couple places and the only time I’ve ever had scrutiny on employee PTO is when someone calls out “sick” right before/after a holiday (we know you’re hungover). And that was back in the day when I did retail.

To the contrary, working at a small non-profit, they wanted us to pressure people to take their PTO so that they’d stay happy.
