There was a single moment where they did alright by firing the gamergator guy and then a character creation option but this is the 6th or 7th bigotry related controversy. From the racial stereotypes going all the way back to the Indian cab driver to the voodoo gang and now more stereotypes, to the transphobic tweets on social media, then the fetishistic transphobic in-game poster, and now this voice kind of transphobia. Like at a point, you gotta stop giving the developer chances and hope they'll only change things when enough people criticise them because they're so ill-equipped to figure it by themselves.
It just highlights what the lack of diversity does for a developer team. Do they have any trans or non-binary folks on the team? Any South Asians or Latinx folks who have say on such matters? I doubt it. Even if they did, it's not showing in their actions.
Overall, CDPR employed 1,044 people at the end of 2019, which is up 18 percent from 2018. 84 percent of people worked for the CD Projekt Red game development groups, and the remaining 16 percent worked for GOG.com. Of the 872 people who worked for CDPR at the end of 2019, 640 were men and 232 were women.
Overall, women make up 26 percent of CDPR's total staff, which is an increase from 2018.
CDPR also announced that 21 percent of its employees are foreign nationals, which seems to demonstrate that people are very enthusiastic about joining the developer. That makes sense, given The Witcher is one of the biggest and most acclaimed franchises in gaming, and Cyberpunk 2077 also has a lot of hype behind it. At the end of 2019, CDPR employed people from 44 different foreign countries, including Ukraine (28 people), Russia (22 people), Spain (17 people), Canada (17 people), the United States (16 people), the United Kingdom (15 people), France (15 people), Italy (14 people), and Germany (14 people).
Additionally, the developer confirmed that it employs four people with disabilities, noting that it has undertaken "every effort" to adapt its workplace setup to suit their needs.
