Need users edits and/or deletes to propagate throughout Google Drive share

We have 7 users.  We just migrated from an environment where files lived on a Microsoft server and were accessed by users through a drive mapping.  I've uploaded the entire shared drive contents to a folder within my Google Drive and named it share.  I've given all users edit permissions.  From within each users Google Drive online I drug the folder from shared with me to My Drive.  Now the folder has downloaded to each users computer within their Google Drive folder.  The problem I see happening is I need users to be able to add, move and delete files/folders from within the "share" folder.  Problem is with the way Drive is setup if the user isn't the owner then the file is only removed from their viewing if they delete it and not everyone elses.  Drive only allows one user to own said files/folders.  Anyone know of a work around?  Thanks in advance.
