       WHERE root.manager_employee_number = 801
       AND   test.value_expression(dept_no, 0) = 25;
     UNION ALL
       SELECT indirect.employee_number
       FROM temp_table AS direct, employee AS indirect
       WHERE direct.employee_number = indirect.manager_employee_number
       AND   test.value_expression(2,3) = 5
