I get that, sometimes not being harassed is worth a pay cut.

Also unlimited PTO and WFH for anyone who wants to

[–] SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

That's pretty dope. Is the PTO actually usable?

[–] Reverendender@sh.itjust.works 2 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (1 children)

Yep. I have literally never been turned down for PTO. And if I want to cut out early, I just tell my team, and everyone is cool. I should probably clarify that I am on salary.

God I'm so jealous. I have 28 days worth of hours and minutes plus bank holidays. I'm also salary. I technically work for a spun off part if the government, so if I went to work private I would at least double my yearly earnings, but there wouldn't be stability in my working days, no pension, no built in disability or injury pay etc etc etc. That said, we should be getting paid a lot more than we are.

We're hiring! No pensions though, and 401k match is 3%. Health benefits aren't bad

I'm not moving from Scotland any time soon

[–] Reverendender@sh.itjust.works 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

There's several openings in our Leeds office, and most of us work remote

As a Stonemason would I have any transferable skills?
