Happens all the time. The company I work for has been sold three times in the past five years.

I often can be heard chanting "change is good".

Maybe someday I'll really believe it... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol3.gif)

I previously worked for two employers that were privately owned and when they sold to Corporate I left. I didn't leave immediately but after seeing management leave I figured "if the rats are bailing off the ship, I should follow there lead"! In hind sight it worked out cause both were eventually pieced out and no longer exist.

Just my .02 worth!

Size up the new owners and be looking. That way you are covered no matter what.

I went through that with the inept Memorex team. If they start selling the assets and leasing them back, run away. Memorex looted a 1.3 Billion/ year company of every asset, floated a ton of credit, and went through bankrupcy three times.

Of course the Memorex Managers got all the cash before the creditors.
