This term seems to have been co-opted and changed. It went from people phoning it in, actively avoiding or farming out work to “not going above and beyond”. If you want to show up and “just do your job”, that’s not my jam but more power to you. However, “quiet quitting” as I’ve seen it is people being “anti-work” and actively doing as little as humanly possible to collect a pay check. Borderline not doing their job. It takes so much extra effort from the people who are trying to do their job, that the people I have heard about are an active detriment to teams - not a net positive or net neutral. Form what I have seen, these are not people “trying to have a good work life balance”.
