I've had this go on for about four months: we were acquired, and although some of our code would be integrated into the acquirer's offerings, our roadmap was of no interest to them, but since we hadn't been legally integrated yet, we couldn't be assigned to new teams or given new work items. This information wasn't communicated to us directly, though, so everyone but a few very senior people just noticed a gradual drying up of tickets and tasks. There was a lot of looking for things to do and looking busy for the first couple months, though as we started to figure out what was going on there were more and more spontaneous frisbee games and slacklining lessons, culminating in the whole of our satellite office leaving the office after lunch to go on a hike one day.
