Dystopia averted: CD Projekt Red developers unionize in Poland

According to a release from the union, CD Projekt Red developers have unionized under the Polish Gamedev Workers Union, PGWU for short. The Cyberpunk 2077 developer’s workers are the latest in a long line of game devs who have unionized in recent history, citing poor working conditions and long crunch hours while the billion-dollar industry continues to grow.

The union is an independent section under OZZ Inicjatywa Pracownicza, a trade union based in Poland. The PGWU began as a company commission.
