Could you give more context on the benchmarks included in the repo?

Oh that's weird, I'll definitely check! I only tested it on Chrome from pc & mac and is working well. Note: I suggest you give it a go from a laptop, the visualization is not yet optimized for smartphone

Hi everyone, I wanted to share with you my organization charting/ visualization project. I started working on this for an organizational research class, but I though that it could potentially be useful in other scenarios (e.g. consulting or sales) so I developed it further.

Right now the script takes into account mainly the person's job title and the location. Job titles are matched against a library of macro positions, to understand the functional role. Location is normalized and then used to identify offices, countries and regions and group accordingly. These data are then fed into a random forest algo that sketches out a best guess of the lines of reporting.

Hope you guys will find it interesting/ useful and if you have any feedback I'd love to hear!
