The Rise of ‘Quiet Quitting‘
The term “quiet quitting” has exploded across social media and infiltrated water cooler conversations everywhere. It’s the latest buzzword capturing the zeitgeist of a workforce grappling with burnout and questioning traditional work models. But what exactly does it mean? Is it a mass exodus of disengaged employees, a rebellion against hustle culture, or something else entirely?
Decoding the Trend: What is ‘Quiet Quitting‘?
At its core, ‘quiet quitting‘ refers to the act of doing the bare minimum at work. It’s about fulfilling your job description without going above and beyond, opting out of the hustle mentality and prioritizing your personal time. Think: not volunteering for extra projects, leaving work promptly at the end of the day, and generally disengaging from the “go the extra mile” culture that often permeates many workplaces.
