What else could I look for?

Flexible time off bundles sick, personal and vacations days so you can take the time you need for the reason you need it.

Some companies offer paid sabbaticals: Basecamp gives workers 30 Fays every three years, Autodesk employees get six weeks every four years and Automattic staff can take off for three months after five years with the company.

Companies like income tax software Intuit, shaving brand Harry’s and IT giant Cisco offer employees five days annually of volunteer time off.
