Overview

The phrase went viral on TikTok in mid-2022. Gallup (2022) estimated at least half of US workers were “quiet quitters” (not engaged). Drivers include burnout, distrust of rewards, poor manager relationships and value shifts toward work–life balance. Clear roles, fair rewards and regular check-ins help.

Frequently asked questions

Is it laziness?
Not exactly; it often signals burnout or low trust.
