You mention that it's formerly a small company that was recently purchased by a much larger company.

They may be giving you autonomy now, but I've never seen a takeover like that not end up with the smaller company being assimilated into the culture of the parent company, especially if the parent company is 1000 times the size.

So, keep in mind that if you do stay, you're making a long-term commitment to the parent company and the culture of that company, especially if you end up on a management track within the parent company.
