I have been thru three buyouts at three different companies.
All were the same.
The new owners came in and essentially fired all the older dead wood employees. Installed their new management and in three months it was all over....................
I sold computer systems for 17 companies from 1966 through the early 2000s.
I was fired once, had two companies go belly up, got caught in a buy out twice and the rest of the times quit for what I perceived to be a better opportunity {I was correct 10 times, missed on a couple}.
I made millions {blew a load of cash on greed and stupidity, no regrets} and still have the same Mrs. Alaska after 60+ years so it's all good.
My worries are for my Country but my Faith in God gives me peace, so a company's success or failure is such a small thing, that it's not worth much angst.
Seek peace in God and if you are a non-believer...good luck.
One we were bought for our patients. They ended up firing everyone but the engineers. Not a bad move, they had been slighting R&D for about a half a decade.
The other two were not good. Weirdly it was the same company. Company A bought Company B. I took the buy out and moved to Company C. Company A a few years later bought Company C. I again took the buy out because I knew what was going to happen. When the news came out about ten years later that Company A was going through bankruptcy I had to laugh because I predicted it to my boss. They had brought in a "leadership team" (never a good sign) from a Mega-Corp to try to run a Conglomerate. It was like bringing in the Pope to run the SBC. Not a good move.
