DAX optimisation row-wise calculation

Hello guys, need some help.

 

I have to calculate listed employee number - its average employee number.

I have calculated two measures:

Employee count = 
VAR total = CALCULATE(
        DISTINCTCOUNT(Employee[No_]);
        FILTER(ALL('Calendar');
       'Calendar'[Date]<=MAX('Calendar'[Date]));USERELATIONSHIP('Calendar'[Date];Employee[Data_Joined]))
VAR fired =    CALCULATE(
        COUNTA(Employee[Data_Left]);
        FILTER(ALL('Calendar');
       'Calendar'[Date]<=MAX('Calendar'[Date]));USERELATIONSHIP(Employee[Data_Joined];'Calendar'[Date]))
RETURN
IFERROR(total-fired;BLANK())
Listed employee = AVERAGEX('Calendar';Employee[Employee count])
The calculation is ok, but it took quite a long time with uploading to the table.
With new Performance Analyze it shows that it took 79096 ms for the table to upload

Please, can anyone help me to improve performance?

@Anonymous try this:

 

Listed employee = AVERAGEX(VALUES('Calendar'[Year]),Employee[Employee count])

Thanks, @parry2k , for support, but I need this measure to be dynamic.

It should calculate for Year, Month or Day.
