This entity is not in the FGD by default.
It should not be put directly in a map because it is automatically generated by VBSP from func_ladder entities.

CFuncSimpleLadder |
info_ladder
is an entity available in Left 4 Dead series and
Insurgency.
Based on VBSP source code, info_ladder
is used to help bots navigate the ladders created from func_ladder entities (which are collapsed to worldspawn by VBSP), but is not found in any SDKs nor leaked code.

func_simpleladder
. In 

func_ladder
is converted into func_simpleladder filled with information about team and what direction the ladder is facing and the brush isn't moved to world. 
info_ladder
doesn't exist and func_ladder
is being converted into this then warning in console "Attempted to create unknown entity type info_ladder!\n"
will be shown when running the map so it's better to instead use func_detail with material that has %CompileLadder unless the specific game has established different way of creating ladders.
