Everyday, news is released of another change in size, services or ownership of a telecommunications carrier. This now-constant shift has opened the door for many small carriers to become larger and more competitive in their marketplace: a positive outcome. Because these companies tend to maintain a manageable size, they are successful at significantly expanding coverage areas and services without compromising connections in the process.
However, for mega-carriers consuming their competition through mergers and acquisitions, this endless state of flux often causes a negative ripple effect. Employees and management spend most of their energies consolidating offices and streamlining workflow rather than doing business.
Working with these carriers can be challenging, especially if the carrier has purchased new coverage areas and “non-standard” or unfamiliar infrastructure. It will spend the first months, even year, focused wholly on transitioning the area's network to its own protocol, typically leaving many customers with periods of compromised connection speeds and inaccurate IP addresses.
Eventually, the carriers finish the transition, and customers are left to re-establish relationships with representatives who may not be familiar with their history or needs.
Carriers of all sizes are important in the telecommunications market because competition benefits everyone. In the long run, it's often just a case of big business getting in the way of itself that leads to diminished service and an unsatisfied customer base for these conglomerates.
