Great place - very demanding

Pros

- CDPR is a great place if you are looking for a challenge. - Nothing is a given thing - things change a lot because being just OK is never accepted. - Starting from the Board member ending on interns people work really hard everyday and because everyone is pulling their weight you fell that the team is strong. - CDPR is a very people oriented company (for the better and for the worse). - Huge drive for quality and creative freedom is being rewarded - if you do an awesome thing people upstairs will take notice. - No corporate overlord because content is king - Overall friendly enviro to grow for junior and a place that will challenge seniors

Cons

- All vegetarian canteen - This is usually not a 8h (and 2h launch break) kind of place - The pressure is big because CDPR strives to be the best and that takes a tool - It can be hard to get your agenda across to top management - they are always on a run doing 20 things at once

Misused potential

Pros

The company has a lot of tallented and passionate people and the atmosphere between people is friendly and helpful. What's also important is that games made by the company always are of high quality, so you're not working on some crap. With various source of income (GOG, publishing, dev) the company was stable in recent years and it seems that it continues. Once in a while parties are organized, which are always a lot of fun and a lot to remember later on. Finally, some teams have very good leads and producers and you feel the connection between people and a sense of being part of team.

Cons

There is a number of issues on the other side. Qiute often work will be lost or done invain and noone will take responsibility for that. What is worse the process will repeat itself exactly the same way. This also includes crunch which is very big - depending on team and project it can be from extra 10 to 40 hours per week, lasting 10 - 80% of project's time. That's huge and it seems like it won't change in the future. Crunch problems are present even after W3 so it's not a past issue. The pay is mid to mid-low with symbolic pay raises over the years - you can find smaller companies in Poland that have better terms in this matter. On ocassions some impotrant informations will not be shared with team (e.g. postponed release date, upcoming demo build, more crunch) and promises will not be kept - days off, crunch duration or pay raises. With decisions made by company you get the feeling that the project is all that matters and the team is not important.
