Yeah I'd be interested to know how this would work with California law that requires employers to pay out unused vacation hours.

Unlimited PTO/Vacation time is an HR hack to get around such laws.

In such schemes, you don’t earn any vacation time, so there’s not technically (and legally) any to pay out. You’re basically lazy-provisioned PTO time as it’s taken, so your legal balance of PTO Time is always zeroed out.
