JP Morgan has about 50k "engineers."

A lot of them are managers, analysts, or people who work with tech, but aren't all trained software engineers. A scrum master is considered an engineer. They had a blanket update to a lot of their role titles a couple years back where everyone in tech suddenly became a Software Engineer as their title (without much meaning behind it).

250,000 engineers at JPMorgan.

There are ~250k employees at JP Morgan, not engineers.

(Note the 2.)

What tool is this for? Sed?

I've copy pasted it before, but i think you just made the syntax click

Yep, sed supports that syntax (substitute). echo 'There are ~250k employees at JP Morgan, not employees.' | sed 's/employees/engineers/2'

Thanks :)

Oh yeah, 40k engineers, apologies

Why not? It's a lot, but I don't see this as an unreasonable number.
