This is required in the US. That's the point of unlimited vacation - since it doesn't accrue, the company doesn't have to pay it out when you leave.

It is not required in the US as it varies by state.

Enough states require it that most companies large enough to be multistate in employment go ahead and standardize it into their policies.

Apparently 27 states require it, but New York does which makes it more likely a large employer would.
