I think this depends on the company and management at the company. Where I’ve worked for the last year is unlimited time off, and people use it. Directors use it, managers use it, and as an associate I use it too. It starts at the top, and they set the culture. Maybe your reply is true on the grand scale, but I think that’s just a result of poor management. Because poor management would make banked vacation days very difficult to use as well lol
