What are the reasons that they are looking to leave? It's probably helpful to know that info so that an open, honest conversation can be had!

^Totally agree. Ask their main reasons for leaving and encourage having an open conversation with their manager. One of my coworkers was looking to leave for a few reasons (compensation, lack of growth opportunities). He worked up the courage to have a candid meeting with his manager and walked out feeling much more confident in his role at the current company. I think sometimes all it takes is being honest about your needs and goals.

Hi guys 👋🏻
So I joined IBM 5 months back, was on bench for this long and got project just a week back.

My PSP and People Manager have been kind of lenient, cooperative and kind to me because I was never told I will be put in PIP, I have to enter project not matching my skillset etc etc.

Is it wise to appreciate both of them via blue points for their support?

I just got a mail saying I have 200 bluepoints to send out appreciations if I feel like.
