Company X spokesperson: Although several of our key managerial employees have left our company since we merged with our leading competitor two months ago, we have no reason to believe that a significant number of our other employees will follow suit. Virtually all of Company X’s current employees are the same people who we employed prior to the merger, and our employee-relations department is making every effort to ensure that these employees are content here.
Which of the following, if true, would tend to support most effectively the spokesperson’s prediction in the argument above?
(A) The employees who left Company X since the merger did so because they received more attractive employment offers from other firms.
(B) Worsening economic conditions may force Company X to reduce the size of its workforce in the near future.
(C) Company X has just hired a highly respected consultant who specializes in employee relations.
(D) None of the employees who worked for the company that has merged with Company X have left voluntarily.
(E) Most companies lose some workers to other firms as a result of a merger, but the number of workers lost is usually insignificant.

Virtually all of Company X’s current employees are the same people who we employed prior to the merger, and our employee-relations department is making every effort to ensure that these employees are content here.
So to strengthen it , if we can say that most (=90%)companies lose some workers to other firms as a result of a merger, but the number of workers lost is usually insignificant.The same will happen this time too with this company.
And option D ,i chose it too but the i understand that here it is being stated about the employees voluntary or involuntary leaving the company which is irrelevant.Also you can see presence or an extreme work none here, it may be possible that some one have left the company voluntarily.
Hope this helps.

Official Explanation
If the statement in choice (E) is true, it suggests that Company X’s experience is comparable to that of other merging companies, and therefore it is unlikely that many more Company X workers will leave as a result of the merger.
The correct answer is (E).
