A large amount of this article is cited only to the company itself (or to its press releases or Bloomberg self-profile). I have therefore placed templates on those sections. Those sections probably need to be cited from elsewhere or removed entirely. [[Special:Contributions/72.229.99.110|72.229.99.110]] ([[User talk:72.229.99.110|talk]]) 21:33, 24 January 2022 (UTC) |

This company was acquired by Sitel (my employer) in 2021 and is no longer operational. For clarity, I suggest the introductory Lead paragraph be changed to past-tense ("provided" instead of "provides") and the acquisition by Sitel be mentioned in the first paragraph ("Sykes Enterprises was acquired by Sitel (now known as Foundever) in 2021.<ref name="bizjournals.com 2021">{{cite web | website=bizjournals.com | date=August 31, 2021 | url=https://www.bizjournals.com/southflorida/news/2021/08/31/sykes-2-billion-sale-officially-closes.html | access-date=March 7, 2023|title=Sykes goes private with Miami group's $2.2 billion all-cash deal}}</ref>"). I think readers should know in the Lead that the company doesn't exist anymore. Thanks for considering my suggestion per WP:COI. Best regards.

Too much of this article is cited only to the company itself
[edit]A large amount of this article is cited only to the company itself (or to its press releases or Bloomberg self-profile). I have therefore placed templates on those sections. Those sections probably need to be cited from elsewhere or removed entirely. 72.229.99.110 (talk) 21:33, 24 January 2022 (UTC)
Updating the lead
[edit]This company was acquired by Sitel (my employer) in 2021 and is no longer operational. For clarity, I suggest the introductory Lead paragraph be changed to past-tense ("provided" instead of "provides") and the acquisition by Sitel be mentioned in the first paragraph ("Sykes Enterprises was acquired by Sitel (now known as Foundever) in 2021.[1]"). I think readers should know in the Lead that the company doesn't exist anymore. Thanks for considering my suggestion per WP:COI. Best regards.
