My experiences with acquihires have not been good.
People went to work for this company based on the domain, the people, or the culture. With the acquihire they change the domain first, and the culture about a year in. Then the people start to leave, and it's just a job, and one you didn't even apply for.
On my worst days it felt like I was sold like cattle, and I would have seen more upside by hiring on someplace else.
