Is it just me, or is that some soft ass stuff right there. I love Webflow and that company. But...paying people to take time off and giving them PTO? I feel like saying: "hey, take a vacay" will totally do the trick.

Doing the trick vs being outstanding which one is more appealing in a competitive market ?

I just don't think it's outstanding. I love bryant and co. I just think moneys best better elsewhere. IF i worked there, I'd be like ok, let's spend money wisely here. If we do trick vs being outstanding, pay 10x market rate. I think do the trick is sufficient

The idea is to put your money where your mouth is: "we value work/life balance and encourage healthy PTO" is easily said, following through with something to show you actually mean it is on another level. The $1k isn't in lieu of paying market rate, it's a statement of intent!

I feel like you can put your money where your mouth is by saying take a vacay and letting them.

That is what happens; if you want a vacation, take it. If it’s your first one over 5 days long, here’s an extra $1,000. Why the cynicism?

I said my points. And again, I love Webflow as a product, their culture seems cool, and the team seems amazing. I also have hung with the founders and they’re wonderful people. Just don’t agree with this.

Do you mind explaining what you don’t agree with? It’s an extra perk that’s relatively low impact for the company and high impact for the team member taking a vacation.
