Calculated Column: Count string within column

I want to be able to count within a table, the number of times a value appears within a column.

 

For example i have the data below with 5 employees. And a [Hierarchy Path] string column.
I want to be able to count the number of times the [Employee] appears within the Column, [Hierarchy path].

Employee         Hierarhy Path         Column String Count         
AAEE | AA4
BBEE | AA | BB1
CCEE | AA | CC1
DDEE | AA | DD1
