Most of the current FEs are over 60 years old and hired in the 1990s. In other words, more senior on the list than the average new hire. So no pay protection required to hire into the right seat.
As a matter of fact, after a year at UPS, I couldn't even hold an FE spot. No one is being held on the panel against their bidding seniority, that I am aware of ... Of course not counting the over 60 folks waiting for a vacancy to move forward
