I think some of the causes leading to this is social media for sure. Once you start hearing how others are quitting their jobs and how jobs are not letting you live or have a balance in your life, or simply not feeling appreciate at work. I know the pandemic has impacted how we view life as well and how it can drastically change out no where, making it not worth dealing with jobs that don't fulfill you.

Some of the consequences are bosses not fining correct personal for their businesses as expected. Also many strikes or unions protests which can lead to changes. Other possible effects are the increase of remote jobs and changes of policy regarding employees and human resources.

Another cause is being burnt out ftom putting in so many hours of work. Work has been a priority in life and becomes a single oriented point to focus on. We immerse ourselves into work so much that there's hardly a balance between our personal lives and hours dedicated to a job. Even with set schedules, there are times when shifts extend into overtime. People grow tired from so much excessive labor they just don't have much more of themselves left to give to other hobbies or opportunities.

Some consequences presented by the people in the video are having high expectations. Many accepted the job thinking they would have set schedules and promotions without fully understanding the job.

They see on social media, and when they see someone making it, when someone quits their ungrateful company, they do the same. The causes would be bad bosses, not paying someone their worth, and no respect towards the employee.

Some companies make promises that they do not keep.

I would say quiet quitting is good and bad in the same time. The reason is that if you are doing the bare minimum, you are technically doing your job; however, if you are doing something extra, I would use that to your advantage to be able to put that in your resume, does that suck, it sure does, but if you do it the right way you can get some skills and get hired somewhere else for a higher pay.

When you do leave a job, the bosses or managers might not give you a proper recommendation.

I like the idea of quiet quitting to an extent. I totally understand how people don't want to do more than needed or even asked because now everyone realizes they don't wanna put their life on pause for a company that wont care if they left tomorrow when they can just hire a newer person.

After covid a lot of people realized that there are so many bigger issues than not answering emails after a specific time frame. But that being said i can also see how this could be bad because no one is putting in the effort anymore which could reflect badly on them in future opportunities.

Quiet quitting can do more damage to just one person. It can cause a business to be low staffed since many are unreliable because they believe their job is holding them back from doing things outside of work.

Some causes being discussed are self prioritization instead of maximal effort. I think a cause of it is people being more self aware of their mental health and how burned out they are. They're also not afraid to speak up about it like previous generations were. Some of the consequences may be overall work flow slowing down and bosses having trouble finding people who are willing to go above and beyond at work. I also think this will normalize working enough to earn your pay but not being overworked.

Other possibilities could be people tired of working overtime and working for employers who don't care about their employees only about the job that's getting done and employees see their worth is not beneficial when putting up with these type of bosses. Some consequences employers were experiencing was loss of employees as people would resign to find better opportunities. This encouraged others to do the same if jobs were taking advantage of employees. Strikes and unions have also increased ever since fighting for better wages or work environments.
