Then you just base it off of the number of employees overall in the parent company, not the number of employees in the subsidiary.

The problem is, there's no legal distinction between a company that own shares but is "really" part of the same company, vs a completely separately company owning shares e.g. a pension fund.

Base it off user count too, problem solved.
