Company forces you to use PTO for everything. You can't take time off or even request it in the future unless you have enough PTO in the bank to cover the whole thing. They take your PTO for every federal holiday, every time you're sick, or any doctor's appointments you might need to have - it makes it very hard to build PTO unless you've been here for many years. They expect you to come to work when you're sick if you don't have enough PTO and not take any personal time or vacations for years straight. I've worked for big companies in the past and never have I worked for a company with these type of PTO policies. This needs to change. Employees here work HARD, we dedicate our lives to Sutter and DESERVE to take vacations, be able to stay home and get better if we are sick, or have doctor appointments if we need them. I think these policies are a big, big issue that drastically decrease the value of working at Sutter for potential and current employees as it largely affects the work/life balance.
