The Groups: Can Edit Subordinate Groups permission is required to add members to Groups you manage.
Yes. An employee can belong to any number of Groups, but only one Group in each Group Type.
For example, let's assume that an organization has a Team Group Type with Team Red, Team Blue, and Team Yellow, and an Office Group Type with Nashville Office, Boston Office, and New York Office. A user can be in Team Blue and New York Office at the same time, but can't be in both Team Blue and Team Yellow.
If you add a user to a different Group in the same Group Type, they will be removed as a member of the original Group. The Group Membership Updates preview will show that they'll leave their current Group before you confirm the changes.
