Let's talk about "unlimited PTO" -- I'm seeing more of this in my half-hearted job search and I'm really wary about it. I'd like to get my prospective employer to agree in writing to a certain number of days that would be considered normal/acceptable PTO, so I don't a) feel guilty for taking that amount and b) get shafted in performance assessments for taking a normal amount.
Has anybody had any luck getting a prospective employer who advertises "unlimited PTO" to do this in contract negotiation phase? Basically I don't want to just rely on the goodwill of said new employer to treat me respectfully for taking a good chunk of said PTO, and I want to define what is reasonable expectations up-front.
