Centric offers
unlimited vacation time and, for my part, I do find it better than traditional
policies that have pre-determined time that can be taken based on employee
level and other factors. Ultimately, it's not because I take more time off
than I used to, but more about not having to worry about vacation time
tracking or planning, allowing me to focus on the balance of living my life.
I don't get to the
last month of the year and say "Ugh, I still have two weeks left to take
or I lose the time." or "I'd love to take two weeks off to go to a once in
a decade family reunion, but need to save a day for after Thanksgiving for
clean-up". As long as it works in the context of my clients'
expectations and delivery schedule, it's just a matter of me managing my time
effectively.
Having read the
article, I became interested in my behavior and found that last year I didn't take
any more time than I had at previous companies. So for me, "unlimited" vacation policy is liberating. It's nice to know it's
there. I'm sure one day I'll use more time, for some special
circumstance, so I'm happy that our policy and my company supports me and provides this benefit.
What do you think?
