I haven’t checked any others, but Tennessee is wrong. FedEx is number one here.

This site seems to corroborate the article:

According to the table on the link, Vanderbilt University employs 22,000 people.

If you include all of the Vanderbilt system (including the Medical centers ), it would add up to 57,000 employees.

Fedex employs just 4,000.

FedEx uses a lot of contractors that probably aren’t counted as actual employees.
