zulily Vacation & Paid Time Off

Vacation and PTO is out of the same pool and you can carry over hours into the next year. I know that the PTO offered now, is less than when I started 4 yrs ago.

You're discouraged from taking time off at all -- even on vacation you're expected to answer email. One bucket for both vacation and sick, and it's earned over time.

It can be hard to get approved ahead of time due to Studio capacity and scheduling, especially around Holidays.

It's good if you have been there for 3+ years, you accrue more. Anyone hired after a certain date accrues less. Employees can get anywhere from a really dismal 6 (roughly) hours a month up to a competitive 12 (roughly) hours a month.

pretty average, the only drawback is they do not pay out pto when you leave the company and sometimes it can be hard to take time off.

Paid time is good at zulily. They offer 3 weeks of paid leave. Software Engineers get 1 additional week of Hack Time off - where you are supposed to do something cool but most just take time off.

no time to actually use PTO

Received a generous amount of PTO and 7 paid holidays.

They lump their Vacation Pay and PTO together so if you are sick you end up taking all of your vacation before you can use any short term leave options.

Zulily offered accrued 3 weeks PTO which was awesome. You can also work from home twice a month after working for the company for 6 months. However, once you leave the company you do not get paid out for your PTO.
