WSJ Your Money Briefing · Unlimited PTO Is on the Rise. Is This Perk as Good as It Seems? · 27 Jan 2025 podcast

Paid for by the Electronic Payments Coalition. matched

Here's your Money Briefing for Monday, January 27th. matched

I'm Arianna Espuru for The Wall Street Journal. matched

As more companies remove the cap on PTO, employees struggle to balance the perk with the pressure to still be known as a hard worker. matched

We'll talk with Wall Street Journal on-the-clock columnist Callum Borschers about the limits of unlimited vacation time after the break. matched

7% of U.S. matched

employers offer unlimited paid time off, according to human resources trade group SHRM. matched

But employees say it's tricky to actually use it. matched

Wall Street Journal reporter Callum Borshers joins me. matched

Callum, unlimited PTO, it sounds ideal. matched

What's the problem with it? matched

Why are some of the workers you spoke to so afraid to actually use it? matched

To your first point about why people are so afraid to use it, do people see it as a reflection of how dedicated they are, how hard of a worker they are if they use more PTO than they're seen as less than? matched

This opens up a can of worms, kind of like, am I asking too much, too little? matched

Do some employees who currently have unlimited PTO and like maybe people think they're living the dream, do they miss finite vacation time? matched

Can managers say no to time off requests even with unlimited PTO? matched

And what about a minimum number of PTO days? matched

Is there a way to tell your company, at least make me take this. matched

If I take more, that's up to me. matched

How can someone with unlimited vacation days set themselves up in a better position to actually use them? matched
