Can someone please explain how ZED fares work with respect to standby priority? Do we have priority after the employees of the airline we are traveling on? I am so new to this and could use all the help I can get. Thank you.

Your boarding priority depends upon which airline you're flying on. Typically you're going to see employees, then parents/dependents of that airline, then buddy passes from that airline, then other airline employees/dependents, or some variant of that.
Just assume you'll be on the bottom and you won't be disappointed! Other ZEDs on a flight are pretty rare, but I think many tend to go based on time of checkin, rather than seniority.
Each airline use their boarding policy for Zed travelers as well. Ex: on AA, checking time, on AF seniority...
