The Rise of Quiet Quitting

The term “quiet quitting” has taken the internet by storm, becoming a hot topic in workplace discussions and social media feeds. But what does it really mean? Is it a new phenomenon or simply a trendy label for an age-old struggle? This blog post aims to unpack the complexities of “quiet quitting,” exploring whether it’s a healthy way to set boundaries or a passive form of workplace dissatisfaction.

Contextualizing the Quiet Quitting Trend

The idea of “quiet quitting” emerged in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, which triggered a wave of reflection on work-life balance and employee well-being. Faced with burnout, increased workloads, and stagnant wages, many employees began questioning their relationship with work. This questioning led some to disengage mentally and emotionally from their jobs, even while physically showing up and fulfilling their basic duties.

Simultaneously, the rise of social media platforms provided a space for individuals to share their experiences and frustrations, leading to the widespread adoption of the term “quiet quitting.”
