The agency I work at was bought up by the monolithic AKQA, which in turn was bought by the epic proportioned WPP.

At first, that meant our one to four person operation in SF (most are in London) moved from hanging around Google offices to getting a terrible fishbowl in AKQA. Then, right when I joined, they got approved for their own space in the financial district of SF. Since then, they've been expanding rapidly, with basically no input or oversight from AKQA or WPP.

So at least in this case it seems there was no issue.

The company is Potato, by the way.
