I think the benefits to the company of "unlimited time off" are

  • they don't have to pay out unused time off if the person leaves
  • they don't have to keep track of it as closely
  • sometimes people take less time off, so they get more working hours out of people
  • it looks good on paper to applicants

they don't have to pay out unused time off

Many companies don't do that even with fixed time off: see every company I ever worked at.

Interesting! I grew up in WA and currently live in UT, and neither require it, though my dad had his paid out when he retired (company policy).

Exactly

Also, I guess there are some fine print conditions like you get less bonuses if you're not working enough, or you're only eligible after working for some time. But that details I don't know
