I’m planning on leaving the company due to the transformative growth and workload. If you leave at the beginning of 2021 do they pay you out your remaining PTO?
Or should I take off the first few weeks then put my two weeks in?

There are a few cases you might not get severance, that would mean you were fired as opposed to RIF. As c-appy as being RIF'D is they did give notice and paid severance.
@OP+18l9sYDN. You were reduced in force after 25 yrs with no severance? I call B#llsh**!! Allstate maybe playing this whole thing dirty but they are paying severance and accrued unused PTO that they owe. I'll give them that at least.
I retired with one month left in the year and had taken all my PTO. I brought it up to my HR rep when discussing my final pay check and she stated no problem. Later I received my final check with no issues. Maybe honest conversation with HR played a role. Maybe retirement played a role. However, l understood unearned time could have been considered in my final pay. I only want what is mine.
A thief working for corporate carpetbaggers = my conscience is clear
Nice story and rant. But I concur with the other poster. You're still a thief. Based on this I'm sure your termination was justified. ;)
Let me clarify for the theft police, timekeeping error not my fault, I was being charged back for 3 pto days that they thought were not owed. When this was clarified with HR and determined to be a timekeeping error on their side it was resolved. I still would not have paid back under any circumstances, I was forced out after 2.5 decades of loyal service, no severance just a swift kick out the door. I gave enough blood, sweat and tears for Allstate to repay the favor and tell them tough s$$t.
@1lji+18l9sYDN - help me out here. You just admitted to THEFT from Allstate. Regardless if it was their error, decent human beings return what was paid by mistake. If you don’t, you are nothing better than a petty thief. And yes, after 36 years with Allstate I was RIFFED in September. How can you sleep at night refusing to pay money back that was mistakenly paid to you? SMH. People like you have no ethics. Regardless of what Allstate does, why aren’t you a better person that stealing from the company?
I was in collections for over $900 which was 3 days pto, they made the timekeeping error not me. I received a few collection notices, spoke to a few HR reps over a few weeks. I refused to pay them back, this is not a debt. Will see if this had any negative effect next time I run my credit report.
@wiy+18l9sYD maybe your definition of small and large amounts is different than mine, but I have known a few that resigned and had used more PTO than earned, in some cases the money was deducted, in other cases they sent a bill, the amounts varied from 100 to 500 dollar range.
Seriously? PTO is EARNED! WTH Did you really think they would give you ALL your PTO in cash if you leave in 2021? Geez 🙄🙄🙄🙄
If you take pto that you have not earned yet and leave the company they will deduct from final pay. If they do not deduct from pay they will do what they did to me and put you in collections and try and scare you into paying them back. There is a formula that an hr person can provide as to how many weeks or months worked equate to pto days earned.
You are paid what is accrued... resign in calendar year 2020 if you have days left. I resigned last week and they paid me 26 days in last weeks check. Extra month of pay = MERRY CHRISTMAS!
Since you don't know, I suggest you take at least 2 weeks vas soon as you can in January. Then give notice. Let us know how that works out
Not sure which department your in. In my department only 5 days roll over each year so if you have more than 5 days they get lost. You may want to ask HR, but I would imagine they pay out what you accrue
PTO’s are earned (accrued) through out the year. You may be paid for earned, non taken days when you leave. If you take more days than earned, you are subject to pay reduction on your final pay check or collection if overpaid. Small amounts are typically not pursued. Large over payments likely will be.
They pay only what is accrued.
I’d take 2 weeks off, come back and give notice.
I think they wohld pay out on what has accrued as of your leave date. Though im not 100%sure.
