They need to deal with merging systems, customer service teams and so forth. Not to mention the fact that many times a huge number of jobs is shed in the process.<BR/><BR/>When the acquisition is complete, the end result is rarely in favor of the customer. Companies merger to reduce competition and to gain operational advantages, rarely to provide better service to their customers (even thought they might SAY different).Shadoxhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08932074837479954410noreply@blogger.com
