Employees demand BuzzFeed pay fired staff for paid time off
Over 400 current and former employees of online media outlet BuzzFeed have demanded it pay earned paid time off (PTO) or unused vacation days to recently fired US employees. "It is unconscionable that BuzzFeed could justify doing so for some...not others," the employees said. They added BuzzFeed is paying PTO to fired employees in California, where it's required by law.
