Loud quitting - Wikipedia

Loud quitting refers to a type of employee disengagement in which individuals openly share their discontent, desire for change, and intention to leave.^[1]^[2] These individuals may refuse to do tasks that they deem unnecessary and by sharing their contempt with colleagues, may spread their disenchantment and disengagement.^[3] Loud quitting may arise from perceived workplace inequities, subpar compensation, and an unresponsive employer.^[3]^[4]

Loud quitting arose as an alternative response to quiet quitting and hustle culture following the COVID-19 pandemic. ^[5]Loud quitting is more common among younger workers who are more vocal about intolerable working conditions.^[6]^[7] Increased occupational stress has increased loud quitting.^[8]

Loud quitting is a revolt against a company's work culture and leadership, and is often made publicly on social media.^[9] Loud quitting may undermine a business's public image, while also making it more challenging for the employee to find new employment.^[10]

Live quitting[edit]

One version of loud quitting is live quitting where employees live-stream their departure on TikTok under the #Quittok.^[9]^[11] By publicizing their departure, employees create accountability for both the business and themselves.^[11]^[12]
