Quiet quitting doesn't have a standard definition. It loosely means doing only what's required of you at work without going extra miles.
Quiet quitting's proponents claim that its upsides include less stress due to investing less of yourself in your job. The term “quiet quitting” emerged early in 2022 on social media to describe the phenomenon of workers refusing to go above and beyond at their jobs and instead simply meeting those jobs’ basic requirements. Typically these workers hailed from fields known for under-compensating extra employee efforts and encouraging hustle cultures that left little time for finding meaning, purpose, or cultivating relationships outside of work.
