    Where is this? What is the point in guilt in your employees to work in longer hours when you can just contract them to work longer hours perfectly legally?

      I think the benefits to the company of “unlimited time off” are

      • they don’t have to pay out unused time off if the person leaves
      • they don’t have to keep track of it as closely
      • sometimes people take less time off, so they get more working hours out of people
      • it looks good on paper to applicants
