I've managed thousands of people. In my experience people didn't feel guilt about taking PTO, they felt FOMO because they didn't feel secure in their position or at the company. They felt something would come up or someone would undermine them while they were away that would affect their employment.

This. This narrative about feeling guilty gets repeated so often, I'm starting to think there might some conspiracy going on here.
