Companies where vacation time is close to zero will also say they have "unlimited." Always ask the interviewers how much vacation time they took specifically. In my experience they'll try to tell you how "someone" took 4 months of vacation but then omit the fact that no one else has taken more than 4 days and median is 0.
> You obviously can't take 100% vacation time, so it's not unlimited.
This is the part that gets me. Everyone knows that it is limited, you just don't know what the limit is until you hit it.
If vacation were truly unlimited, sure, it would be a perk. Absent that, knowing what the limit is is a perk.
