But the merger inescapably digestive problems, organizational structures need to restructure, duplicate posts must be cut, redundant links need to layoff. Even if not involve large-scale layoffs, the new manager has the portal prejudices, enterprises have cultural differences, manage differently and so on, will let users keep annexation by "discrimination".

In short, do prepare early, early do meter
