10 Companies Hiring Remote Workers That Offer Unlimited Vacation Time
Now that COVID-19 vaccines are widely available in the U.S. and travel restrictions are easing up, it might seem more tempting than ever to pack your bags and take a vacation — especially after a year in quarantine. And while working remotely makes it easier to travel and work in beautiful destinations, jobseekers are looking for WFH opportunities that also allow them to enjoy those trips without having to log on — aka vacation time.
Luckily, there are plenty of companies out there offering remote flexibility and endless vacation days. If you’re among those looking for this kind of work-life balance, we’ve rounded up a list of 10 remote-friendly companies with *heart eyes emoji* unlimited PTO, plus lots of other perks:

Bright Cellars is a monthly wine subscription service, and in addition to unlimited vacation days for particular roles, company employees also work a flexible schedule, get a discounted monthly wine membership, and attend wine tastings led by the in-house expert.
The credit repair software company Credit Repair Cloud offers employees nutrition, yoga, mindfulness, and fitness classes, as well as financial perks: the opportunity to attend the company’s Credit Repair Expo, a budget for personal development, profit sharing, and, of course, those sweet, sweet vacation days.
