Can we still use a 1/2 day PTO to count as an 8 hour day in the office? Or do we have to go in for 4 hours? I am not complaining, asking a genuine question since my direct doesn’t know the answer.

Why even bother wasting PTO? I consistently never take off during this time of year and also never care to do much other than move my mouse.

Received final paycheck as non-working employee on 12/26 that also included unpaid PTO. When will the first severance pay date be in 2026? Will it be on 1/2 or 1/16?

Every MN based employee could apply for the new policy and receive up to 20 weeks PTO. This is going to be abused more than Charlie Sheen’s nose.

I am trying to make it to bonus day in early February. Only have 3 carry over PTO days and that only gets me until MLK week. I do not want to go into office as an hour away. I also grabbed all my personal stuff from office and do not plan on going back.....I know PTO of 4 hours meets the 3 day a week goal and exemption me on 8 hour a day requirement. Do 4 hours of community service meet the same 3 days and 8 hour requirement as well if use 3 a week?

Looks like we get 16 hours of community service hours at start of year which would get me to February..(I know they won't prorate these days when I turn in notice but would do PTO). Also, would they try to get funds back for USA floating holiday and Personal holiday if I use them before quitting/ retiring?

When does Wells Fargo pay out unused PTO for those who were laid off and their severance period ends today?

Do you answer or just respond when you get back? I feel like I’m being pressured because they have sent two emails knowing I am on pto this week. Why do people do this? I have my ooo message on and my calendar blocked for a reason.

How long di you have to work at Dell to get the extra PTO/Vacation hours?

I understand we get our severance payout in paper check mailed by end of Jan and STI by end of Feb. When do we receive our PTO balance payout?

Are you able to see your PTO on Absence Dashboard ? Looks like they cut the access and no longer see the PTO balance. Wanted to get a proof before Dec 19th

Following up on the email from yesterday regarding the 401k and today's town hall, I need to address the ongoing issues we're facing. It’s unacceptable that we are constantly being pressured to violate labor laws by working through lunch. PTO has essentially been eliminated, and now we have to seek permission from Workforce just to take time off.

Additionally, being asked to handle two chats at the same pay after the recent pay cuts is beyond unreasonable. We deserve clarity on what management truly expects from us. Why is there a lack of communication regarding the reasons behind these changes? Are the whistleblower TikTok videos the cause of this? It’s time for transparency and respect for the workforce.

Well said, @2m0+1katwry9c.

Heads up. If you're in a state that makes companies pay PTO after termination, look at your final check.

They paid roughly 1/10th my actual PTO and calculated the hours wrong.

Email them now before you sign any severance.

I keep hearing December 18th as a date for consumer group. Directors have a PTO block after , probably to do damage control. Also expenses need approved by that date. Anyone hear anything more concrete?

What happens when an employee is laid off after a divestiture? Like when a severance is paid how many years of service is taken into account: is it the number of years at OT or at the new company? or do employees get a severance during divestiture? what happens to their PTO days etc.

The moment i receive the letter, i will file all the paid leave. (PTO and Caregiver)

Comeback and say NO.

Our leadership has IQ of the current weather right now in New England.

I've heard of managers rushing projects and expecting VSP resources to work extra hours, including weekends. And possibly give up use-or-lose PTO. What rights do workers have in this situation? Is there any point in reaching out to HR? Or a lawyer?

I was laid off on October 28 and I was wondering when they pay out the unused PTO. Thank you in advance for your response.

I received my final paycheck but my remaining PTO wasn't included. Anyone know if that comes separately?

Anyone else seeing this in their SAP profile? "Unpaid Leave – Bridge to Retirement" for time? What exactly does that mean? I mean I got the over 55 and over 10 years of service, but is that just some admin limbo status placeholder? or does it actually mean something? Someone told me that at one time, even if a person was RAd, they got like 2K blue points, but I don't see anything about that anywhere. I also in vacation/PTO calendar its all approved until the end of the year.

Anyone receive their PTO payout yet? Was it a check or direct deposit?

Friends at Fannie said they got new company holidays - December 24 and 26.

Those who are looking at the age issue with a class action, is there any room for the stealing of our PTO?

B4 tech mgr here, during a recent internal audit, HR department discovered widespread misuse of vacation time across multiple departments, including associates taking unapproved extended leaves, extra days not reporting to workday, overlapping PTO with sick days without documentation, or logging vacation while working remotely on company tasks.

Leadership has officially warned all managers to tighten oversight, and HR is now actively reviewing records with potential disciplinary action (up to termination) for violators. Going forward, every vacation request will be scrutinized, and any past discrepancies could trigger immediate corrective discussions , double-check your own records now and reach out to your manager if anything looks off before they come knocking. Better safe than sorry.

Let's say every worker averages 100k. So each personal day is ~$400 on average and each worker uses 2 personal days during Christmas because they dont carry over. Let's also exclude NJ workers from the equation who get 90 days notice.

Since they don't pay out personal days it saves up to ~5-10 million by getting rid of Workers before Christmas week. As opposed to being off books on 12/31.

does it mean layoff? if someone gets a ‘below expected impact’ rating, does taking FMLA or PTO offer any temporary protection, or could HR still move forward with actions while the person is on leave?”

Your vacation balance will be paid out the next normal paycheck after your off payroll date and the severance is above an beyond your vacation time payout and will be another payroll period after vacation is paid out at the earliest

Are people going in this week? Not using any PTO, but based on the OOO messages, I’m assuming it’s going to be a ghost town.

I'm curious about how the future of our jobs is shaping up. Given all the changes happening, I wonder what might be next. They've already shifted our request process to only go through workforce, and no longer allowing instant approvals for hours available like before. In an email, they mentioned upcoming changes in now going forward into 2026 regarding PTO requests, which makes me think we're in for more shifts ahead. Plus, they continue to ask for volunteers to work through our lunches and before or after our shifts. It raises questions since I thought breaks and lunches were a legal requirement. I'm left wondering if these changes are the new norm and what insights others might have about what's really going on. What can we anticipate in the coming months?

I’m employed until December 20th. Are we required to work, meet with our boss, be available? I’ve already scheduled a vacation for next week.

Been a loyal NTAP employee for over a decade. I was told to burn my PTO in exchange for all the time off that i wanted. Then you lay me off and keep the $20k that I would have had coming to me if you had not told me to use it ASAP. So glad to not be working for this company anymore, how awful you are to the people that once made you great. What a terrible leadership team that is now in charge of a once great company. Keep sc--wing your employees and see how that works out for you in the very near future........

When some one gets RIF
do they lose all their unused Pto also?
Hope they get good severance package
What else they need to know

I was informed my position was eliminated today.

I was told by my supervisor that I don't have to do any work (including transitioning any work to other teams) or charge any time for previously scheduled PTO.

Is that correct?

Had a pre scheduled PTO day, wondering if they’ll still call or wait until tomorrow. I’d like to get this cr-p over with.

Anyone know if personal hours are also paid out in addition to unused pto? In CA we get an annual payout in the spring so I am wondering if that would also be included in addition to our pto payout and severance (yes I know severance and pto are paid out separately)

It’s honestly a sign of how many entitled people we have here who are overly obsessed with wellness week. Working 9 to 5, in person, at your desk… with PTOs… is that really that difficult?

And for HR, if the goal is to let these naïve people out, raise the lifetime discount bar from 5 yrs to 10. You’d be surprised how many people would end up leaving, since that perk, along with wellness week is what so many seem to value the most.

Anyone have clarity on what half day pto convert to in terms of hours? Its listed as in office day but does it count as full 8 hours worked?

When you give 2 week notice and they let you go immediately, do they pay you those 2 weeks>?

What about unused PTO?
