I'd like this to happen. While Fedora users are doing a great job in maintaining packages in their free time, I think having payed employees working on this can enhance package quality and overall Fedora stability in its whole. We just make sure no one is sponsored into packager group only because they are added to a company group... they still have to prove their understanding in Fedora packaging guidelines. I'd say that these groups should be distinguished from SIGs by using a different suffix, i.e. 'foocorp-corp' for grouping by company interests in contrast to 'foo-sig' for grouping packages by specific 'foo' area or 'foo' stack. I would be however against having a group as main admin of packages. Groups can already be set as main POC for bugs and this is enough, IMO. The primary maintainer should be a real person, while a group can be set as admin of a package.
