Bruce Plante, 11/13/13:
Because big mergers are always good news for the employees of the affected firms -- there's never any redundancy leading to layoffs, and no "rationalizing" of disparate contracts to drive down labor costs.
Nope, mergers are a great thing for workers! (Or do I mean "top management"?)
(Plante is probably following the lead of his fine city's mayor, Dewey Bartlett, in praising this deal, which might bring a few more jobs to his city...by taking them from elsewhere in the US.)
