Many U.S. employees are fretting over AI-driven technology shifts, political turmoil and the state of the economy, according to a new report from Glassdoor. Those crosscurrents have left workers feeling generally exhausted, according to the job search firm, which on Wednesday named "fatigue" as its 2025 word of the year based on how often Glassdoor users mentioned it in the company's online forum. Glassdoor said use of the word in its online community jumped 41% in 2025, compared with the previous year.
Main Idea: Glassdoor says “fatigue” best describes how many workers feel as they deal with AI changes, political stress, and money worries.
Key Points:
Workers may feel more burned out as AI changes, high prices, and politics add stress, which can hurt focus and morale at home and on the job.
