This study examines the effects of mergers, acquisitions, and strategic alliances (M&A/SA) on employee work performance across diverse organisational settings. Using responses from 150 employees from companies that have undergone recent M&A or alliance activities, the study analyses behavioural, psychological, and performance-based changes associated with organisational restructuring. A structured questionnaire captured employee perceptions related to workload, productivity, communication, motivation, job satisfaction, and adaptation to organisational change. Descriptive statistics, t-tests, ANOVA, and regression models were used to examine differences and predict performance outcomes. Results show that while strategic collaborations can improve resource integration, innovation, and operational efficiency, they also create substantial uncertainty, stress, cultural friction, and lowered morale among employees. Effective communication practices, employee involvement, and supportive leadership significantly moderated negative effects and enhanced adaptability, aligning with earlier findings emphasising the importance of human factors in M&A success. The study emphasises the need for organisations to prioritise employee-centred integration strategies to sustain performance during restructuring.
