>Hate unlimited vacation

In my company it means you can take the time off whenever you want, but we are understaffed, so if you take time off the whole project will be stopped and we won't raise money. But of course you can take vacation as much as you want.

So for the last 2 years I have had max 3 consecutive days off (and only once). I will never buy bs "unlimited PTO" again.

Sounds like a problem for management, not you. Go take your vacation and stop being abused and exploited by management.

We are super small company, there is no management. I'm teamlead/backend developer/project manager. If I go, the whole development stops. That's how it is.

But yeah, I started sending my CV already.
