No, Mapbox has been very supportive, trying to help however they can and obviously not expecting me (or anyone else in Ukraine) to work any time soon.

Same for colleagues from Belarus and even Russia — they are strongly pro-Ukraine and anti-war, although stating this publicly can easily get them in jail (already happened multiple times).

are they still paying you?
Yes. Although I’m intentionally delaying invoices so that I have unrealized funds outside of the country, just in case.
I'll have your back regardless, let me know and if you and/or your wife and kids need to come to the West I'll be more than happy to pay your way/assist in any way that is required. Mail me: jacques@modularcompany.com Hang in there and stay safe, all of you. Scary times!
