Contrary to what its name might suggest, quiet quitting doesn\u2019t actually involve an official resignation from your job. It\u2019s merely a transformation in how employees approach their work.<\/p>\n<p>The catalyst behind this movement is simple yet powerful: a <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/general\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"3\" title=\"General\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">general<\/a>ized, overwhelming desire deep inside the minds of the new wave of employees, predominantly those belonging to Gen Z, to find a counterweight to the long hours spent working at desks and computers, or in front of any other screen.<\/p>\n<div class=\"inarticle-wrapper channel-cta\">\n<div class=\"ica-text\">\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Get_your_tickets_for_TNW_Valencia_in_March\"><\/span>Get your tickets for TNW Val\u00e8ncia in March!<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>The heart of tech is coming to the heart of the Mediterranean<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Gen Z employees are just now entering the workforce and facing the aftermath of the overridden, overworked traditions their predecessors, millennials, endured. These traditions are part of a more extensive belief system ingrained in a culture that values those who dedicate their lives to their job and neglect their personal lives, resulting in a generation of overworked, burdened, burned out, exhausted individuals.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_demand_for_work-life_balance\"><\/span>The demand for work-life balance<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>So, this is where the transformation mentioned above, primarily centred in the tech industries, comes in. It\u2019s essentially the product of going from \u2018Above and beyond\u2019 to \u2018Acting your wage.\u2019 Under this new model, the typical employee will no longer accept or tolerate excessive office hours and will take control of their lives by giving personal matters precedence over their work duties.<\/p>\n<p>On the surface, this new idea (more and more favored by younger employees and more and more bewailed by corporate veterans) seems to respond to a cursory desire to work less. Still, quiet quitting is a more extensive, more powerful, and comprehensive response to a culture that has so far normalized burnout and exhaustion.<\/p>\n<p>So, quiet quitting is a comforting choice, it\u2019s a growing, forceful revolution changing how the corporate world approaches its relationship with employees and the workers\u2019 mindset. Employers can no longer expect their employees to prioritize their jobs over their personal lives and families.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not only cultural. Many European employment laws protect workers\u2019 rights to have wiggle room. Even Elon Musk, who\u2019s living through a revamped jack-of-all-trades phase, <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Palle_Hoffstein\/status\/1594371817107505154?s=20&amp;t=jO20CALD9FYyfVXpPgJmAg\">is having trouble firing<\/a> (instead of laying off) European <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twitter<\/a> employees because of these laws, which prevent employers from contacting staffers outside working hours and also grants them due process before ousting them from their jobs.<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.resumebuilder.com\/1-in-4-of-workers-quiet-quitting-saying-no-to-hustle-culture\/\">Quiet quitting is a significant movement<\/a>, but it also means you\u2019re still maintaining a relationship with an employer who wields considerable power over you and consumes the precious time you\u2019d rather use for, say, becoming a <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/cult.honeypot.io\/reads\/from-bootcamp-student-to-expert-developer\/\">10,000-hour developer<\/a>. So, why not go for the <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/cult.honeypot.io\/reads\/how-to-tell-your-boss-you-are-quitting\/\">genuinely liberating choice of just quitting<\/a>? Considering of course all parameters that come with that decision.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Taking_the_leap\"><\/span>Taking the leap<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Even though quiet quitting took over headlines in 2022, actually quitting has silently (pun intended) become an HR darling. The term \u2018Great Resignation\u2019, as executives and consulting firms dubbed it, has also shaken the professional space during the past two years. <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wired.com\/story\/great-resignation-perks-tech\/\">During the Great Resignation, more and more professionals left their posts and repurposed their careers<\/a>, giving a further spin to the concept of doing \u2018what\u2019s necessary and that\u2019s it.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Some professionals didn\u2019t change career paths, but instead simply shifted how they interact with their jobs. A <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/insights.stackoverflow.com\/survey\/2021#section-employment-employment-status\">Stack Overflow survey<\/a> observed that many developers veered from full-time arrangements to freelance, independent working systems, all while doing essentially the same, which is punching code in.<\/p>\n<p>Even if these insights should come as motivation to someone struggling with the decision of leaving a job (in the sense of \u2018if everyone\u2019s doing it\u2026\u2019), they are not the only truths a struggling worker can leverage for motivation. While job insecurity and a global recession looming ominously can make people reconsider quitting, the market tells a different story.<\/p>\n<p>The tech industry is in high demand for programmers: jobs and pay, as our <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/cult.honeypot.io\/reads\/developer-salaries-2022-report-switzerland\/\">salary reports<\/a> detailed, are copious. Actually quitting your job to become a full-time programmer might seem like a scary feat, but, as our research tells us, it <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/cult.honeypot.io\/reads\/data-engineering-salaries-in-europe-in-2022\/#:~:text=Salary%20Compared%20to%20Years%20of%20Experience\">can be quickly rewarding<\/a>, with a good bang-for-buck ratio.<\/p>\n<p>The best part? You don\u2019t need a college degree or years-long education to break into the job market. With a short-term bootcamp, you can make a decent start. As our deep dive into bootcamps revealed, in 2020, <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/cult.honeypot.io\/reads\/the-ugly-truth-about-coding-bootcamps\/#:~:text=that%E2%80%99s%20why%2C%20in%202020%2C%2079%25%20of%20bootcamp%20attendees%20got%20a%20job%20180%20days%20after%20finishing%20their%20course.\">79% of bootcamp attendees got a job 180 days after<\/a> finishing their course.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Truly_quitting_and_starting_anew_works\"><\/span>Truly quitting and starting anew works<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Due to the scarcity of job offers and the incredibly high demand for skilled programmers, combined with the many accessible options to learn how to program, getting a job in coding is a very attainable goal. As the insights of the Great Resignation uncover, it\u2019s an increasingly popular choice.<\/p>\n<p>A <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.coursereport.com\/reports\/2020-coding-bootcamp-alumni-outcomes-demographics-report-during-covid-19#key-findings\">2020 report on coding bootcamps by Course Report<\/a> found that the average graduate had seven years of experience in an unrelated field, a college degree, and no prior experience as a programmer. Making this career-changing move might seem like a giant leap, but it allows you to liberate yourself from the constraints of the corporate world and start working on your terms.<\/p>\n<p>Quitting your day job might be the most freeing choice you\u2019ll ever make: you\u2019ll have control over your schedule and larger authority over who you want to work for. And hey, you can be on the receiving end of a very competitive paycheck. So, while quiet quitting is definitely the more leisurely, most comforting choice, sometimes letting it all go and starting over under your conditions can be the more liberating choice.<\/p>\n<p>We hope you have a better idea of what quitting might do for you. We absolutely don\u2019t recommend doing it lightheartedly, it\u2019s important to weigh all your choices and do what\u2019s best for you.
