$1000 wellness budget, unlimited PTO (without the toxic culture)

likeuplifting

I hear you and I'm glad you use your unlimited PTO. I will say, however, that I use that amount of days plus have guaranteed accrued PTO that must be paid out if I leave the firm. I'm not sure what you get with unlimited PTO that is better than guaranteed days.

- Free phone
- Capital IQ acess (pro version, all subscriptions included)
- Local news subscriptions (depends on geo)
- Recharge days (1 free day every month/2 months)
- PTO carry (I assume other firms may have this)
- Limited, but large, international data on phones

Hi Fishes,

An investment related query. I'm drawing 1 lac/month salary currently and serving notice period with lwd-26-Aug. So, do I need to show all the investment proofs that I declared here as it's only been 5 months in the fiscal year and PPF of 1 lac would make the 5 month salary (5 lacs) non-taxable, right? Please guide.
