Isn't the Golden Company also available for hire? At least in 1.3 it was if you got them before the invasion started. Either way, I've never made it far enough that I could hire them, or would need them. Perhaps in my current playthrough I'll get to hire some of them. I remember reading that The Tattered Prince for example becomes your companion if you hire The Windblown, 75k is expensive for a companion but he's supposed to come at level 46.
I'm going to guess that they could be useful especially after you start your own kingdom, I can see many uses for the merceneray companies in that case.
Golden Company is not available they're "in theory" with Dany / Aerys when they invade Westeros.
None of the leaders of the mercenary groups actually become your companion but the Tattered Prince & Ulf are able to lead patrols and are much stronger than regular units.

Thought I would drop a quick poll here, please be sure to comment below if you want to go into more detail!
Personally I think they're a great asset if hired around day 300 when I'm usually asserted into a decent portion of westeros, I like using them more as patrols (via master of law) as the Veteran Freeriders can be quite strong versus bandits, free folk & anything else without cavalry! They're a great defensive asset for sure. I've never tried to use them offensively as a whole group.
