You have heard your teams version of why they are leaving; have you heard your managements?

If you are in PMO - probably weigh other projects and move around!

Also not rolling off anytime soon.

Privately meet with your manager. This could be my team (and others teams) and I can tell you a frank conversation with me will help you understand why people are leaving and what the manager is looking for. Then you can decide if you think you can fit.

A1 - I'm doing a little bit of everything everywhere.

P1 - I know why people are leaving/quitting. I don't know if I'm too stupid to stay or if this will even pay off.
