The company had to dip down to 200 company time- but was only able to find 130 spots for new hires. As an example, they had to shrink NY 200 by 24 spots, I don’t think the company was planning on that.
A lot of FOs do not want to give up 18-20 days off a month. Unless you need the money why would you?
