Case
Study:
In the
past, the decision criteria for mergers and acquisitions were typically based
on considerations such as the strategic fit of the merged organizations,
financial criteria, and operational criteria. Mergers and acquisitions were
often conducted without much regard for the human resource issues that would be
faced when the organizations were joined. As a result, several undesirable
effects on the organizations’ human resources commonly occurred. Nonetheless,
competitive conditions favor mergers and acquisitions and they remain a
frequent occurrence. Examples of mergers among some of the largest companies
include the following: Honeywell and Allied Signal, British Petroleum and
Amoco, Exxon and Mobil, Lockheed and Martin, Boeing and McDonnell Douglas, SBC
and Pacific Telesis, America Online and Time Warner, Burlington Northern and
Santa Fe, Union Pacific and Southern Pacific, Daimler-Benz and Chrysler, Ford
and Volvo, and Bank of America and Nations Bank.
Layoffs
often accompany mergers or acquisitions, particularly if the two organizations
are from the same industry. In addition to layoffs related to redundancies, top
managers of acquiring firms may terminate some competent employees because they
do not fit in with the new culture of the merged organization or because their
loyalty to the new management may be suspect. The desire for a good fit with
the cultural objectives of the new organization and loyalty are understandable.
However, the depletion of the stock of human resources deserves serious consideration,
just as with physical resources. Unfortunately, the way that mergers and
acquisitions have been carried out has often conveyed a lack of concern for
human resources.
The
cumulative effects of these developments often cause employee morale and loyalty
to decline, and feelings of betrayal may develop. Nonetheless, such adverse
consequences are not inevitable. A few companies, such as Cisco Systems, which
has made over 50 acquisitions (https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/about/corporate-strategy-office/acquisitions/acquisitions-list- years.html),
are very adept in handling the human resource issues associated with these
actions. An example of one of Cisco’s practices is illustrative. At Cisco
Systems, no one from an acquired firm is laid off without the personal approval
of Cisco’s CEO as well as the CEO of the firm that was acquired.
QUESTION:
1.
Investigate
the approach that Cisco Systems has used in its many successful acquisitions.
What are some of the human resource practices that have made its acquisitions successful?
2.
Do a
research on what is different about Cisco Systems in comparison to other
organizations in terms of handling employees?
