In fact, this factor may contribute to organizational performance. When a company A merged or acquired by a company B, cultural clashes might occur. Therefore, this study examines the correlation between organizational culture differences and its dimension with job satisfaction. Much of the literature discuss the outcome of M&A using accounting-based measures and stock market-based measures, but few studies examine the outcome of M&A based on socio-cultural integration.The broad assumption explains that cultural differences may create negative socio-cultural outcomes, e.g. job satisfaction. Previous findings show that organizational culture differences have an impact on employees, such as an increase of anxiety and stress that may lead to decreased job satisfaction and commitment, and increased turnover and absenteeism. This thesis focuses on the impact of organizational culture differences on M&A performance and particularly emphasizes the impact on socio-cultural outcomes such as employees job satisfaction. Data on the context of M&A and organizational culture are analyzed from much literature sources, archival information, and survey questionnaires. In contrast, we found that cultural differences and its dimensions may not correlate with job satisfaction but it depends on the job position. We conclude that the relationship between cultural differences and job satisfaction is not as simple as expected. We cannot simply conclude that relationship between organizational culture and job satisfaction is negatively or positively correlated since it might depend on many factors such as preferred and agreed acculturation mode, the nature and the extent of cultural differences, integration approach, and many more.
