Attempted on my own and I have the information displaying correctly but the console shows an Uncaught TypeError?

Hello all, I tried to figure this out on my own before watching the whole video. I have the information that is needed to be displayed on the website accordingly but when I open up the console, I get an error that says:

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'inoffice' of undefined at XMLHttpRequest.xhr.onreadystatechange (widget.js:17)

Is this an error that can be ignored or am I doing something wrong?

Nevermind, I kind of figured it out. Inside my for loop arguments, replacing xhr.responseText.length to employees.length removed the error. Though I'm still curious as to what the difference is and why the error was still given if anyone can enlighten me.
