CDPR is paying their staff the full bonus for Cyberpunk 2077 due to the circumstances of the release.

- Rapzid 6y agoProbably need them to stay and fix the bugs instead of rage quitting when their bonuses are withheld likely because decisions made outside their control.
- washadjeffmad 6y agoI felt like management withheld the bonuses to get them to stay on to finish the game. Major patches have already been promised for Jan and Feb because it's basically early access quality, and I bet more than a few devs are ready to walk away. I know if tensions were high after a long crunch and I just got a big payout before a major family holiday, I'd need some convincing to go back in.
- Latty 6y agoMaking it less terrible after-the-fact, after tons of bad press and outside pressure, and when you desperately need the devs to stay on and fix the problems left after the launch they no doubt told you was not going to work… not sure that deserves much praise. Don't get me wrong, it's better than not doing it, but it doesn't fix the underlying issue with the system there.
- frakkingcylons 6y agoI'm not praising them, just stating facts.
- krainboltgreene 6y agoI heard the bonuses were paid out prior to the last release bump, so they got much less than they could have.
