'Quiet cracking' describes employees who perform their jobs but suffer internally without revealing their struggles. Many are remaining in their positions due to job market uncertainties and fears of wage stagnation. Frank Giampietro, EY's Chief Wellbeing Officer, notes that these individuals often feel trapped with few better opportunities available. This situation may adversely impact morale, productivity, workplace culture, and ultimately lead to employee burnout, signaling a growing concern in organizational health and employee engagement.
"What we've seen in the market more recently is that a lot of folks are actually staying with their current employers, but they're not actually thriving at work," said Frank Giampietro.
"A lot of folks actually feel stuck where they are, and it's not necessarily that they're making a choice around continuing to be there, but it's that they don't have other choices available to them that are better."
"Quiet cracking can affect morale, productivity, and culture and lead to burnout."
