These examples are not comparable to what the OP was saying, e.g AOL/Time-Warner, Compaq/HP are mergers of giants with lot of employees.
- mbesto 6y agoOk fine. Here ya go: BoA/Merrill Lynch Shell/Royal Dutch Sanofi/Avantis Glaxo/SmithKline P&G/Gillette Roche/Genetech Exxon/Mobil Conoco/Philips Disney/Fox AT&T has had so many successful mergers that the government has basically had to split them up every time because it made them into a monopoly. Should I go on? EDIT: PS - DoubelClick in 2007 was considered "BIG". It had 1200 employees and was bought for $3.1B. Which was A LOT at the time.
- sumedh 6y agoThose are good examples, you should have included them in the first post.
