I think generally the business is screaming for change and driving the IT department who would happily keep it on prem. When the new CTO CEO comes along obviously there will be a cloud first policy, due to too many conferences.
But if you are going to move your VMs to the cloud, why pay twice as much to run it on a vmware platform.
Just do a V2V migration and learn the new AWS/AzURe/cloud of choice interface.
