There are many aspects to be considered. At first they might be assessed by their experience, specific skills, education and attitude, also the job role is playing it part too. On the way the thinks might change, it depends by individual returns for the benefit of the company in terms of meeting or exceeding the expectations, of how much value it brings to the business, of how much is willing to go extra miles etc. Of course,  the company rank on the market is an important detail who will count.

In most of the cases the acquiring company will measure the employee’s capacity and reward them according to their parent company’s existing policy unless certain skills and experience in the acquiring company is unique or not listed with them.

 

for example like acquiring a company solely because of their Research and Development unit then employees working in this department are at least measured at market average and reward them accordingly which will be either better than previous reward system if they want to retain the staff.

Once again ... this depends on the company which is purchasing the old one and the negotiations prior to the acquisition.

Some companies lay off workers or down size ... all in the name of getting lean and saving money.

I am looking for an other job if I find out a company is marching or being acquired .... you can count on jobs being cut

In most of the cases it is measured in terms of experience, skills level, existing pay scale. A promotion or a higher pay grade are few ways to reward.
