Abstract

Researchers have looked into the feelings that employees have about acquisitions at different points in the process and found that these feelings can range from opportunities to obstacles to future success in the workplace. (Edwards & Edwards, 2015).
Sarala et al. (2019) assert that acquisition ACQs are an essential part of corporate strategy. Although ACQs are sometimes perceived primarily as financial transactions, they also contain a sizable "human aspect." Workers are an important component of the target company's human capital, especially in deals that ACQ completes that involve the acquisition of knowledge transfers.

This paper focuses on exploring the previous relationship between employee satisfaction and enterprise performance. Data for the research were obtained from assessment reports done by a third international party. SPSS (2024) statistical package is used for analysis. Results indicate a negative impact in the form of increased costs and decreased productivity after acquisition due to the decreased values of some employees’ satisfaction dimensions past acquisition.
