Output Unsorted employee list:
A: Level = 1
B: Level = 5
C: Level = 2
D: Level = 8
E: Level = 5
Employee list sorted by name (default order):
A: Level = 1
B: Level = 5
C: Level = 2
D: Level = 8
E: Level = 5
Employee list sorted by level:
A: Level = 1
C: Level = 2
E: Level = 5
B: Level = 5
D: Level = 8
