How will this affect Jetbrains ?
- MrDisposable 5y agoIf I remember correctly, they aren't incorporated in Russia (but I may be mistaken).
- throwoutway 5y agoCzech IIRC
- mythz 5y agoJetBrains founders are Russian and have publicly condemned the attacks [1]. JetBrains does have offices in Moscow and Saint Petersburg but they're technically a Czech company with their head office in Prague, Czech Republic.

- shaolinspirit 5y agoit is a full-scale war, there are no "attacks"
- dgellow 5y ago4 days ago it wasn't the case yet. Things are evolving insanely fast.
- system2 5y agohttps://ukraine.ua/news/stand-with-ukraine/ https://ukraine.ua/news/stand-with-ukraine/ It says: "The most important thing you can do for Ukraine now is to READ and SHARE verified information about Russia’s attack on Ukraine." I think they started the war by attacking Ukraine. We shouldn't try to read too much into it.
- danmur 5y agoI woke up in a cold sweat last night with this thought, but yes, Czech company (Russian founders I think)
- isbvhodnvemrwvn 5y agoLook at their blogs. Their key employees are predominantly Russian. Being incorporated in Czech republic doesn't mean squat if their employees work in Russia.
- dotancohen 5y agoJetbrains is Czech. They have lots of Russian developers, but that is an internal matter to them. It won't affect you or my use of Jetbrains products, but it will likely affect how quickly new features and bug fixes are deployed.
- masklinn 5y ago> Jetbrains is Czech. They have lots of Russian developers The company is Czech but the founders and most of the top folks are russian, fwiw.
- cbg0 5y agoThey'll most likely need to offer relocation to devs that want it, as they might not be able to employ and/or pay Russian devs anymore due to sanctions.
- rvalue 5y agowhoa.. i almost forgot about this
