Allegations of unpaid labor are for crowdsourced translations and have nothing to do with Valve as a workplace.

This controversy is known and there are a few translators on Steam/Valve that came from the community, but nowadays it is mostly outsourced, and they do a terrible job (they replaced gamers with people who can't even bother to download the game to check the context a string is applied to).
