Just my idle curiosity here, I have zero canines in the altercation...:

What defines the end of the flow? Was the "plug" flow guy hired on/before a certain date, and the next guy at Compass hired the next day or later?

Did/has the flow-eligible vs. non-flow-eligible distinction caused any friction at Compass?

Is/was there any way to "fail" the flow, or is/was it truly "effective on <date>, you're on the DL seniority list"...?

Did/has anyone bypassed the flow, choosing to stay at Compass (presumable for seniority reasons)? In any significant number?

Again, just curious--I was never at Compass, and the one guy I know at Compass was just hired a couple of months ago (thus not flow-eligible)....
