The KB article I usually refer people to is for the user share rather than
company (it's 294667). I think if Dave just makes sure the inherit box is
right on the subfolders, then checks the box to apply the permissions of the
top-level company folder to the child objects, that should fix this. (Also
making sure that in advanced, the option is to apply the permissions to this
folder, subfolders, and files).
