introduced unlimited PTO

How does this work in practice? What if someone just takes the whole year off? Or would they just get fired for their work not being done?

Managers still need to approve it and it's their discretion to decide if someone is taking the piss or not.

I recently found out one of my managers was just arbitrarily not approving more than 30 days off in a year and he got a good bollocking for it.

So far nobody had actually taken the piss with it, if anything people end up taking less.

Thanks, yea, I guess the point is to pressure people into taking less than they would want to. I hate these mind games, feels so hostile while masquerading as benevolent.
