Hi JoAnnTaylor ,
I think this resource may help you: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/scheduling-meetings-with-hundreds-of-attendees-f8cce35d-673e-41a0-8aea-dc5331bb60ed
In Microsoft 365, the maximum number of recipients on any sent item, whether it's a normal email message or meeting invitation, is 500. When you send an email message or a meeting invitation to a distribution list, the distribution list only counts as 1 recipient.
So if you create a DL with all your employees, you should be able to send a MR to all of them.
I hope this helps.
