Hi, when I try and load this, nothing loads and I get the spinning loading circle, not sure if this is a server issue

I got the object to import and parsed it so it was working until I put in my function, can someone have a look, maybe I have done something wrong!?

var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhr.onreadystatechange = function () {
    if(xhr.readyState ===4) {

     var employees = JSON.parse(xhr.responseText);
      console.log(employees);

     var statusHTML ='<ul class="bulleted">';
      for (var i=0; i<employees.length; i +=1) {
      if (employees[i].inoffice === true) {
        statusHTML += '<li class="in">';
      }
      else {
        statusHTML += '<li class ="out">';
      }
      statusHTML += employees[i].name;
      statusHTML += '</li>';
    }


   statusHTML += '</ul>';
      document.getElementById('employeeList').innerHTML =statusHTML;
    }
};
xhr.open('GET', 'data/employees.json');
xhr.send();
