Introduction: The Rise of “Quiet Quitting“

“Quiet quitting” has taken social media and workplaces by storm. But what does it really mean? Beyond the catchy phrase lies a crucial conversation about work-life balance, employee expectations, and the evolving workplace landscape.

Decoding Quiet Quitting: What Does It Really Mean?

At its core, quiet quitting describes employees doing the bare minimum at work—fulfilling their contractual obligations without going above and beyond. It’s a departure from the “hustle culture” mentality, where overworking was often glorified.

Factors Contributing to the Quiet Quitting Trend:

• The Rise of Hustle Culture: Years of pressure to constantly hustle and grind have led to burnout and a reassessment of priorities.
• The COVID-19 Pandemic: Remote work blurred the lines between personal and professional lives, intensifying the desire for clear boundaries.
• The Great Resignation: Mass resignations empowered employees and made them less tolerant of unsatisfactory work environments.
