Abstract
This study examines the impact of mergers and acquisitions (M&A) on employee satisfaction using a dataset of Glassdoor reviews. Through both ordinary least squares (OLS) linear regression and ordered logit models, the analysis highlights a significant decline in employee satisfaction following M&As, particularly within six months post-event. These findings suggest that M&As negatively affect employee sentiment, emphasizing the importance of considering employee perspectives during M&A processes to mitigate adverse effects and enhance the success of corporate restructuring. The study contributes to the understanding of M&A impacts on workforce well-being and suggests integrating employee-centric strategies in M&A planning.
