what the heck am i doing wrong
Possible that your contacts aren’t synced and are rather stored locally. As a result, try exporting it as a card then importing it to your iPhone. The instructions are below.
Contacts are tied to your email provider, so if you add your work email account to your iPhone, those contacts will be imported in. Go to the Settings app > Apps > Contacts > Accounts > Add New Account. Once added, make sure the Contacts toggle is turned on. Once you do this you can merge duplicate contacts if needed. Congrats on your retirement.

Yes, you will want to do this on your personal iPhone. You will be asked your email provider whether its Gmail, iCloud, Outlook etc and use your work login.

How do I transfer contacts from my work phone to personal iPhone without overlapping?
