I don't get PTO - but I said raise
-
@babyjmama: agreed. And I feel like if you compared the free money you're getting via PTO it's more than 3%! So either way you make out by taking PTO.
-
I get 3 weeks vaca, 1 week sick, 1 week for CE and I would still pick PTO! I want to work somewhere where I get like 8 weeks of vaca. Does that exist? !?!
-
PTO hands down
-
PTO no question. I'd happily take a week of UTO (unpaid time off) to have more time with LO.
-
I vote 3% because I get plenty of time off- accrue 11 hours of PTO every pay period (2 weeks).
-
@Jewel664: I want your job.
-
PTO definitely! But like other PPers said... if the % was higher... I might pick the %
Like 10+%
-
PTO ends up being more than the 3% raise. so definitely PTO!
ETA: i work for myself, so it would be awesome if *someone* paid me NOT to work! ha.
-
I think I'd take the raise. I already get 5.5 weeks paid vacation and 4 weeks of paid sick leave, so I don't feel like I need more time off. I can always use more money though!
-
Thanks for all the responses! I love hearing the different reasons people would take either one!
-
Time off for sure!!! I only get major holidays off paid, so that's 6/7 days a year. Any paid sick/vacation time would be great!
-
PTO for me. And as a side note, I wish I just had PTO instead of separate sick and vacation days. Right now I get 10 vacation days, three personal days (which are pretty much vacation), and a week of sick days. I'm NEVER sick, so it seems like such a waste and also just encourages me to call in "sick" when I need a mental health day or something.
-
I just asked for extra "flex" days at my annual review. I got 2 a month! Score! But my boss probably banked on my over achieving and controlling attitude getting in the way of my flex days.
-
It depends how much PTO you get. Money is tighter than it was before for us and I just got a 3.3% raise. It really helps cushion the month to month budget
I have upwards of 20 PTO days plus 5 daysI carried over so it is hard getting it all in sometimes.
-
%3 because I have a lot of PTO accrued but work is always so crazy that we never get to take too much time off.
-
PTO all the way!!
-
@locavore_mama: that's the only good perk. I'm a psychotherapist on a team that treats chronically mentally ill and homeless. Not glamorous that's for sure. I love our PTO policy.
-
I don't take my PTO as it is. I'd take the money!
