Merger (or Acquisition) Recommendations?

Posted by Cliff on Sunday July 13, 2003 @08:30AM from the swallowed-by-a-bigger-fish dept.

pauly asks: "We are a small (5 man) specialized software company which is merging with a larger (200+ employee) company. Basically they are buying us to add a whole new product line and have us be their development skunkworks. What recommendations would Slashdot readers have before, during, or shortly after the acquisition? This post is not a solicitation of legal advice: we have a very nice contract drawn up which is agreeable to both parties and which we will be signing shortly. We are looking for practical precautions or recommendations. If you have gone through the same type of deal, what would you do the same, or differently?"
