hierarchy

The hierarchy function transforms a standard set of unique employee and
supervisor identifiers (employee IDs, email addresses, etc.) into a wide or elongated format that
can be used to aggregate employee data by a particular line of leadership (i.e. include
everyone who rolls up to Susan).

Methods for data engineering in the human resources (HR) corporate domain. Designed for HR analytics practitioners and workforce-oriented data sets.
