Former and current employees have shared their experiences of working at Quantic Lab, a Romanian company which provides quality assurance (QA) support as an external third party.
Quantic Lab came under scruntiny in June when a YouTube video uploaded by channel Upper Echelon Gamers contained details of mismanagement and malpractice at the company while it was helping with development on Cyberpunk 2077.
The allegations, shared with Upper Echelon Gamers by whistleblowers, were brushed off by Quantic Lab CEO and founder Stefan Seicarescu at the time.
In a new report by PC Gamer, employees at Quantic Lab spoke more about conditions at the company and the time spent working on Cyberpunk 2077.
Several employees claimed management told them to “avoid talking” about how many years of experience in QA they had when speaking with CD Projekt Red. CD Projekt Red was not getting the “level of experience” it paid for, and sources said it led to the company raising concerns over the QA’s “underwhelming performance” multiple times to Quantic Lab.
