The professional version of romantic "cushioning": keeping your options warm — updating your CV, taking recruiter calls, freelancing on the side, nurturing a network — while still employed full-time, so that if your current job collapses you have a soft landing already in motion. The term spread through HR and LinkedIn commentary in 2022–23 against a backdrop of tech layoffs, hiring freezes and recession headlines, when even high-performers stopped trusting their employers to give them notice. Career cushioning is generally framed as a rational defensive move rather than disloyalty, and overlaps heavily with the rise of side hustles and "polyworking".
(slang, neologism, social media) The act or practice of someone entertaining other potential romantic options while in a committed relationship.
