Only Office parent company is a bit weird.
They started in Latvia in 2009 yet it is a fully Russian company.
https://github.com/orgs/ONLYOFFICE/people https://github.com/orgs/ONLYOFFICE/people are all Russian yet they are based in Latvia(Russians nationality is about 25% in Latvia).
https://www.onlyoffice.com/blog/ru/ https://www.onlyoffice.com/blog/ru/ their blog does not offer Latvian language.
This homogeneity would be normal if they were working toward Russian market but even then you'd expect to see a token Latvian or some other nationality.
Normal 25 person IT company in Latvia working with west would have perhaps 10 Latvians, 8 Russians, an Estonian, a Lithuanian and someone from the west and perhaps someone from east (India or Pakistan) - all speaking English.
Ascensio only job offerings for sales managers (towards Western market no less!) were in Russian (which is borderline illegal in Latvia)
The only rational explanation is that OnlyOffice owners have set a comfortable culture for their workplace and see no need to change it.
