I agree with the suggestions provided above as well – retention bonuses, pulse surveys, communications are all important in making sure employees have information and understand what the business is doing. If there are particular individuals that have been identified as key retention targets also providing a mentor or contact from the acquiring organization who can familiarize them and connect them can be helpful as well. Include these employees in future planning projects or other work that gives them a balance to the rumors of impeding cuts.
