/Sounds like the English word "quiet" (same pronunciation) + the English word "quitting" (same pronunciation)/

Meaning

Doing the absolute bare minimum at work without formally quitting: showing up, checking the boxes, and nothing more. The term, borrowed from English, became widespread after the pandemic as a response to burnout, toxic workplaces, and the realization that overdelivering for no reward was a losing game.

Examples

He has been quiet quitting for months, does exactly what is required and not a thing more.

Quiet quitting is honestly the rational response to toxic management.
