THE “QUIET QUITTING” MYTH IS TOXIC FOR TECH

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

The idea that $300k/year engineers are doing next to nothing as a norm in tech is damaging and ridiculous. The myth misleads aspiring engineers, fuels layoff culture, and damages the industry's reputation. While it is true some employees coast, glorifying this idea only perpetuates toxicity. Engineers should instead focus on creating realistic expectations, better leadership, and healthier work cultures.
