    Will be interesting when this meets quiet quitting.

      From the article:

      "Quiet firing happens when managers fail to adequately provide clear expectations, feedback, support, career development, and recognition for an employee in a way that makes them feel ignored and pushes them out of an organization," Ben Wigert, director of research and strategy for workplace management at Gallup, told Insider.

      Wigert added that "quiet firing happens unintentionally more often than intentionally."

      That’s called being a bad/incompetent boss/manager. The term “quiet firing” is just there as click bait.
      Intention matters.

          Quiet firing is one step back from constructive dismissal. Passive aggressive personnel management.

          Ax does have a point - it's really shitty management.

          I was only joking

            Not necessarily. It can be a face saving way to tell folks it's time for them to find another job while they have one. In that respect it can be a kindness. It's been going on a lot longer than quiet quitting.

              I'm still waiting for Ax to tell me how he's handled personnel matters.

              I think it will be fascinating.

                Partially. It's also a way to make somebody quit and avoid legal action from a disgruntled employee, especially with a problem child marching to the beat of a very distant drummer. Be fair, be firm and make their life legally miserable.

                  Yes, in some cases it can be easier for everyone. I can think of a couple of specific examples I've seen, and one I was involved with, but I'm not saying any more than that 🙂
