Quiet hiring is when an organization acquires new skills without actually hiring new full-time employees, says Emily Rose McRae, who has led Gartner’s future of work research team since its 2019 inception, focusing on HR practices.
Sometimes, it means hiring short-term contractors. Other times, it means encouraging current employees to temporarily move into new roles within the organization, McRae says.
So...a bullshit meaningless term created to cover a guess.
Yea, that’s not how it works. Quiet quitting is already there and this new generation of employees will not tolerate the smallest of slights. You think giving them the work of two jobs for the paycheck of one will work well?
Came across the term today. This is exactly what happened to me the past several months and now have a term for it. It starts with "involving you as a subject-matter expert" in a failed project, then when tentpole people get pulled out and put elsewhere, the tent canvas falls on the remaining suckers. No negotiations, just a gradual slide into doing other people's work without realizing it. Took me a few months of long weeks and overtime (unpaid, salary) to figure out the ruse. So I"m doing a Soft Quiet Quitting, which is "failing" to do these new unnegotiated skills and pretending I don't have the aptitude. Will post how the outcome will be ....
But yeah, I'm here to tell you: If HR/Project Managers start to drag you in, meet no deadlines on time and ask dumb questions. Don't let it happen to you.
So...a bullshit meaningless term created to cover a guess.
A bullshit term to make temporary contractors (gig economy) and doubling people's workload sound like anything other than the swindle that it is.
Fuck you, pay me.
Let's see if it gets used, and how they use it.

That's basically how the US got involved in Vietnam.
