The Church of Scientology organization is hierarchical -- there are no recognized autonomous congregations, by design. However, considering that the Church considers anyone who has taken a Scientology or Dianetics self-improvement class to be a Scientologist, only a minority of the official membership is actually actively involved in a Scientology group or organization. And quite a few more consider themselves Scientologists but do not check in regularly. So you could say their organization is hierarchical but their membership is mostly autonomous.
