Avis sur CD PROJEKT RED

Inconvénients

Poor managment, poor decisions, many people left because of that.

Inconvénients

Many teams are lead and/or directed by incompetent people who focus more on advancing their own career than shipping a good product.

Developers are being fired if they speak up about their leads' incompetency.

HR processes fail to solve any mismanagement issues, often leading to developers quitting their jobs.

The upper management is rotten to the core and full of people skilled only in sucking up to the directors.

Complete mess in terms of production leading to crunch all the time.

Many leads and directors lie constantly, both to their teams and their leads. People exposing those lies are often forced to leave or are straight out fired.

Many developers have been asked to put up positive reviews here to hide how things really are.

Low salaries, even compared to what other gamedev companies in Warsaw pay.

Your career can be frozen by your lead based on lies he spreads about you and there will be no one to help you.

Inconvénients

- ...but often trouble to find time for vacation.

- Crunches for years. People staying for 10-12h/day and coming in on weekends, just so they can meet the required dates. And that's not during approved crunch.
During "real" crunches some people tend to stay till 2 or 4 am, then show up next morning to do the same. After some time, the project is redesigned and a lot of effort goes into the bin, while new deadlines and design decisions make people shake their heads.
Might be good for the game, but holy crap - where's the prototypes and preproduction?

- Lack of decisions. Often we show multiple approaches, get some critique and go back to the drawing board without clear direction.
Sometimes the critique is: "Make it cooler" or "Oh, I like this idea, can we implement this as a new system".
People are scared to be creative, as someone from the management might see a feature and wish it to be implemented into the game, without giving more time to do so.

- Lack of pro-active HR. You really have to have a breakdown or turn into a fish for someone to notice and set up a quick meeting. Promises of keeping an eye out are just promises.

- Multiple leads changes in a short time.

- As Seniors and Leads disappear, plan is to replace them with 2-3 Juniors, expecting them to do the same job. Can't really complain as i suspect that's how i got in, thrown into deep water [good exercise though].

Everything from the managment to the staff not know what a Table top RPG is supposed to be.They seem to be too focused on simplifing the experience rather than elucidating the groundworks of a RPG system and redefining by adding more depth and complexities it.

even for polish salaries they are paying pennies.
upper management is fighting constantly, you dare to point anything to Adam Badowski he will bully you or fire in the soonest possible occasion. Adam thinks he is infallible.

poor pay even if you compare polish IT sector!
If you can work as robot it's for you ;-)
