The way I understand quietly quitting is that humans are not working the extra that is expected of the job. Is that happening here? For so long, those of us in IT are/were expected to be available and work whatever hours were required.
In my own long tenure, 23+ in IT, this started around 2004. Sure there were times, here and there prior. But after that it was expected one might work/be-available an entire weekend for a release or something impacting the app you were working on. Some orgs offered informal "comp" time as the mothership did not. Again, some not all. Rarely was it 1 to 1. This has continued for some time. I do not know if still does with so many application lines moving to IBM/Kyndrl.
At the same time, we got the 2% raise every year. We also saw the benefits become less - AIP, 401k matching, cost of insurances increasing, less company holidays.
So why not go somewhere else? Easy to say, not always easy to do, if you factor in age and/or most IT jobs, here or elsewhere, want specific knowledge of tool ABC or XYZ.
For those of you that have moved on to big and/or better paying gigs, sincerely, congrats!
Anthem/Elephant/Evil-ance health is a company that depends heavily on IT. It is not, nor will be an IT company. There is a major difference between the two. Another thing people working here need to realize, you are working for the shareholders, period. It is all about giving back to them. That changed years ago when Anthem went public. Regardless of the company, things change if they go public.
The "great places to work" type of surveys are different. IMO, they are skewed to make the mothership look like a lovely place to be.
If the quiet quitting continues, perhaps this place will have to re-think things.
Look at this way, with the name change a number of select people got new experiences along with swag. tommy got a building and the rest of us got nuttin
