Someone shared a story about their company's leave policy backfiring in a big way. Their workplace gives 2 days off per month, so most people save them up for a year-end vacation. Recently, the manager told everyone to keep leaves under a week because of quarter-end deadlines. But then the company dropped a new rule: only 6 unused days can roll over to next year. Since many employees have 20+ days saved, they're now telling the manager they'll take their full vacation before December. Some are ready to go to HR if denied. Now the manager is panicking because multiple client-facing staff want time off at the same time, which could mess up project deadlines. Have you ever seen a company policy cause chaos like this?
