Joining Visuals by Hierarchy - Bar Chart

I have been asked to recreate the following Tableau visual in Power BI. It was created years ago by a former coworker, and I do not know how to use Tableau.

I have the same measures calculated in my report, but they are currently being represented as individual bar charts. These are the problems I am facing:

- When I go to a different level in the category on one visual, it is not reflected in the other visuals (my hierarchy is essentially: Categroy>Segment>Brand Family>Brand>Item)

- When one visual is sorted it does not sort the rest in the same way (ex. If I wanted to sort descending by "Adds" I would want the Y axis for all visuals to respond accordingly)

 

I have tried to group the bar charts together but that doesn't seem to do anything other than I can move them together. Here is an example of my existing bar charts. Ideally I would want all Y axes to be the same, and only show the one on the far left.

Updating this in case anyone else has a similar issue. I ended up using the pivot table visual and adding bars to some of the columns to get the desired effect!
