Explanation: If they are companies that compete with each other, depending on the behavior of each one, it will be determined whether or not they are forced to lower prices. But if it is a cartel which colludes for the benefit of all, surely companies would choose to keep prices at the same level since, having a lower cost, would imply a greater benefit.

Employees frequently complain about the inconsistent assistance they receive from the HR department due to its large size.

Explanation:
