What ended up happening was the that the smaller company effectively led the new "IT team" for both companies, and my friend at this company was able to basically get a nice promotion and salary increase out of it due to his new role.

They were 50 people, and bought by a company with closer to 500 people and had over a thousand devices poking at their infra. A friend of mine worked at a company that was acquired by a another.
