Hatebag posted:getting a master's degree on your own dime seems pretty crazy to me because so many engineering companies will pay for your tuition to get a master's degree. choosing to stay in the employee incubator for an extra 2% of your life? no thanks! Because everyone works for engineering companies

My gf started her masters immediately after her undergrad and broke the education system over her knee and had both degrees entirely paid for via grants and scholarships and got paid by her lab as well

Hatebag posted:pto laws mostly have to do with whether companies can have a use it or lose it policy and if they have to pay out accrued pto upon termination and related issues. the rest is up to agreements you sign with the company which boils down to you need to be able to manipulate your boss into doing whatever you want. poo poo I don't have any rings

pto is also one of the easiest negotiation points for a job. usually they'll present an offer and pretend like they can't change the salary (this is bullshit) so they might not budge on that but pto you can tell them to give you a few extra weeks and if you've got leverage or they like you, you can get what's effectively a few thousand buckazoids

Everything is rigid payscales and pto accrual rates. Probably for the best cause my only experience in getting a job has been during very desperate times of my life to get a job. Last year I tried to leave the burnout factory and nobody would hire me I'm a loser.
