Hello Coolbug

I think it depends on what *****? stands for.

You're employed *by* someone/a company
You're employed *with* conditions/constraints/powers etc.

Examples:

I was employed by XYZ company from 1st January to 31st December.
I was employed with the understanding that my salary would be reviewed
after 6 months.
