A SQL while loop code in Snowflake does not work

This can be written as a recursive CTE. Albeit not what it turns out this question is wanting.

I have used a CTE for the DATA thus it looks messed up.

but as a full self contained blob:

)
SELECT * FROM (
    WITH RECURSIVE hi_cte AS (
          SELECT 
                worker_id, 
                worker_name,
                worker_title,
                department,
                manager, 
                NULL::text AS manager_name,
                NULL::text AS manager_title,
                1 AS org_lvl
          FROM data
          WHERE manager IS NULL
      
          UNION ALL
      
          SELECT e.worker_id,
                 e.worker_name, 
                 e.worker_title, 
                 e.department,
                 e.manager,
                 m.worker_name AS manager_name, 
                 m.worker_title AS manager_title,
                 m.org_lvl + 1 AS org_lvl
            FROM hi_cte m 
            JOIN data e 
                ON m.worker_id = e.manager
    )
    select * from hi_cte
)
;

gives (trimmed):

but if you have a table, replace data and use:

WITH RECURSIVE hi_cte AS (
      SELECT 
            worker_id, 
            worker_name,
            worker_title,
            department,
            manager, 
            NULL::text AS manager_name,
            NULL::text AS manager_title,
            1 AS org_lvl
      FROM data
      WHERE manager IS NULL
  
      UNION ALL
  
      SELECT e.worker_id,
             e.worker_name, 
             e.worker_title, 
             e.department,
             e.manager,
             m.worker_name AS manager_name, 
             m.worker_title AS manager_title,
             m.org_lvl + 1 AS org_lvl
        FROM hi_cte m 
        JOIN data e 
            ON m.worker_id = e.manager
)
select * from hi_cte

and then you can do inserts, or what ever you please.

Eventually, I used Javascript to make it work:

CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE temp_db.public.p_workers_loop()
RETURNS string
LANGUAGE javascript
AS 
$$  
    var _lvl  = 1;
    var _flag = 1;
    var _query;
    
    while (_flag == 1)
    {
    
        _query = snowflake.createStatement({
            sqlText: "SELECT 1 AS flag FROM temp_db.public.tbl_workers_rc_results_op2 m JOIN temp_db.public.tbl_workers e " +
            "ON m.worker_id = e.manager WHERE m.org_lvl = " + _lvl + " LIMIT 1;" 
        });
                
        _flag = _query.execute().getRowCount();
        
        _query = snowflake.createStatement({
            sqlText: "INSERT INTO temp_db.public.tbl_workers_rc_results_op2 " +
            "SELECT e.worker_id, e.worker_name, e.worker_title, e.department, e.manager, m.worker_name AS manager_name" +
            ", m.worker_title AS manager_title, m.org_lvl + 1 AS org_lvl " +
            "FROM temp_db.public.tbl_workers_rc_results_op2 m JOIN temp_db.public.tbl_workers e " +
            "ON m.worker_id = e.manager " + 
            "WHERE m.org_lvl = " + _lvl + ";"        
        });
                
        _query.execute();
            
        _lvl += 1;        
    }  
$$    
 
CALL temp_db.public.p_workers_loop();
