That lines up with what I’m seeing too. Nerding out slightly on the seniority list, looks like approx 440 hired Nov 16-Oct 17. Not sure how 200/year comes into that when the data bears out doubling+ that number.
Purple hope for everyone!

Not that I’m aware. It’s more knowing guys (including myself), when they got hired and doing the math. I’m right at a year, so was curious how much hiring had occurred beneath me in 12 months.

Don’t know there is a rhyme and/or reason to the employee numbers. The 3-million series are the newest pilots as of a few months ago, and all hiring in the couple-ish years before that was 5-million series. Unless that person had a previous job @ FDX, then they retained their original employee number, which is another kink.
Hard to know pecking order from looking at the actual number. Some kind of HR magic involved, I’m not qualified to explain any of that math.

What I was told was that in the 2014-ish timeframe, big FX decided to allocate employee number blocks to the different divisions, and Express was allocated the 5-million block.
No idea how that has changed this fall back down to the 3-million block
