I’m writing today to inform you of a company-wide decision to pause commercial activity in Russia, Ukraine and Belarus. This is a personal decision for us.
- H9 S. W+ h4 v8 g& j8 U; OLike everybody around the world, we are closely watching the events unfolding in Ukraine and throughout the region. We proudly maintain a workforce of incredibly talented and devoted individuals in Ukraine, and have sister companies with staff in Ukraine, Russia and Belarus. We have confirmed their safety, told them to prioritize their well-being, and offered financial and relocation assistance. For the moment, I'm pleased to tell you that everyone on our team has reported in as unharmed.
