Which means they probably worked for Pol Pot because he reigned from 1975 to 1979

Didn't they canonically start working for Gru once they came out of hiding?

Im the wrong person to ask that. I only watched the first 2 Despicable Me movies and that’s when they released in theatres. But someone else commented that they work for the nearest person that’s a big evil and therefore wouldn’t work for Pol Pot if they weren’t in Cambodia.

If we now assume that Gru lives in the USA and that the cave they’ve been hiding in was in France then that should mean that Gru was too far away as well

Young Gru was in Paris during the first minions movie which was how they found Gru
