Thoughts on quiet quitting? Or better to just leave the team hanging during busy season. I’m leaving the industry anyway

Quiet quitting isn’t going to help maintain a positive relationship with your current team. If you’re going to leave, just leave.

Quiet quit so you still get paid while you job search. Everyone does the bare minimum in corporate anyways.

I hate to say that I agree, but I do. I would start looking for something else while you still have a job because its always so much easier to find something when you already have a role.

Either way it seems you are ok with leaving your coworkers hanging. if you agree to take on work and then get none of it done and intentionally don’t communicate that to your senior or manager, and they find that out the last week of the audit or project that is by far worse. So maybe try being a mature adult with some thought about how your selfishness impacts others.

I think it depends on how you define quiet quitting. Doing the minimum that is reasonably expected of you is fine i think. Doing nothing isn't really

Quiet quitting is all the rage. It's Soo popular it's easily identifiable. Be the bigger person and decide if you are going to be a valued member of the team and give it your all. If not then let us know that you won't be on the engagement. Id rather the team know extra effort is needed than someone not pulling their weight

If I’m leaving accounting anyway and could probably get a higher paying job (in accounting before I leave) for the present moment at a competitor should I do that or try to maintain a positive relationship with my team by staying and just quiet quitting 🤣

Stay in the team. Why jump companies if you are going to leave in the short term? Plus quiet quitting is more difficult when you are new and eyes are on you

By quiet quitting I meant working 50-ish hours during busy season instead of 80+ and communicating that sorry I can’t do it if asked late not just not doing anything sorry if that wasn’t clear. No way anything would make it to the last week without being done btw bc status checks are done almost every day.

But also EY, I’ve been here a few years and I don’t even blame associates who leave me hanging bc they’re effectively making min wage when they do everything that’s asked of them. It’s a shit deal and I think most of them are smart enough that they’re ripping themselves off staying, which is why I’m leaving
