17:17Now PlayingIs your boss trying to make you quit without actually firing you?
Instead of layoffs, more companies are using subtle tactics to encourage employees to leave on their own. It's called quiet firing—and it can be difficult to recognize until it's already affecting your confidence, career growth, and mental health.
In this episode of Work Hotline, Sho breaks down what quiet firing really looks like, why companies do it, and how you can tell the difference between a temporary rough patch and a workplace that's intentionally pushing you out.
More importantly, we'll discuss what you should do if you think it's happening to you. If you liked this episode you might be interested to learn more not only from your Work Hypeman, Sho Dewan but also with some of the biggest names and experts in career and finance!
