That pretty much sums up my experience with IBM when they bought our company as well. I had a colleague who quit immediately finding out they bought us out because he had worked for them before. I gave them the benefit of the doubt but he was right and I left once they started to integrate us into the borg. Just about everyone ended up leaving not to long after either.

Don’t you have golden cuffs? Aren’t you heavily incentivized to stay, at risk of not getting the money you’ve worked on for years?

When I was hired the company wasn't offering options and I negotiated a fair market price for my work so I was able to "just" leave.
