The Rise of “Quiet Quitting”: What Does It Mean?

The term “quiet quitting” has exploded across social media, becoming a buzzword capturing the modern workplace zeitgeist. But what does it actually mean? Is it a silent revolt of disengaged employees against hustle culture, or simply a rebranding of setting boundaries?

The Pandemic’s Impact on Work-Life Balance

The pandemic undeniably shifted our relationship with work. Remote work blurred lines between personal and professional life, leading to burnout and reevaluation of priorities. Employees, particularly Millennials and Gen Z, started questioning the expectation of going above and beyond, especially without increased compensation or opportunities.

“Quiet quitting,” while seemingly new, encapsulates a brewing sentiment – rejecting the “live to work” mentality and desiring healthier work-life balance.
