Is it a red flag if the long-standing consultants on a project are rolling off? Joined a project where the bulk of the knowledge sits with one individual for that area, and they’re leaving. This is making it difficult to navigate and effectively understand what’s going on

Hey Googlers, I’m going in for my GCP TAM second round on Monday and had a few QQs for you all:
