It's just folders. I open the all users start menu folder and
create subfolders, like Office, Internet, Utilities, Graphics, etc.
Then I put all the actual program shortcuts into those folders.
If necessary I rename the shortcuts. If the shortcut says,
"The Amazing Acme Editor v. 4.56" I just rename it to "Acme Editor".
So Office has Libre Office Writer, Wordpad, PDF View, WinMerge.
Graphics has Paint Shop Pro, IcoFX, IrfanView, etc.
Once I've distributed the shortcuts I delete the leftover
junk, like unistaller links, website links, etc. Then I open the
user start menu folder and anything in there that's not in
all users gets moved into one of my topical folders. Then I
delete everything else, leaving the user start menu folder
empty.
The Start Menu Programs menu is just a reflection of whatever
folders/lnks you have in your Start Menu Programs folder. Here's
a picture of mine:

With Open/Classic Shell you can just right-click the Start button
to access each of those folders.
