I am trying to figure out a formula that will calculate how many years &
months an employee has worked for the company. I found a formula that will
give me the years, but not years & months.

Take a look at Chip Pearson's notes at:

=today()-hiredate
Then format that cell as Special YY:MM

I followed Mike's instruction =today()-hiredate, however I do not have YY:MM
under Special or Custom formatting, how do I obtain this selection?

=DATEDIF(hire_date,TODAY(),"y") & " years "
& DATEDIF(hire_date,TODAY(),"ym") &" months"

Select Custom and just type it in the Type: box.
