I don't know people keep insisting on this in every thread about the group. For the last time, all the members have said they're up for a reunion for the past 2-3 years and they're friendly with Nicole, especially Ashley and Melody. Only Jessica and Carmit aren't friends with Nicole, but both have said Nicole was a professional and they would definitely work with her again.

I'm sorry, but when you're in a music group, you don't release singles that say Nicole Scherzinger feat. The Pussycat Dolls. It's rude AF. The girls spoke in many interviews post-breakup that they wanted to sing more and weren't allowed to. It stopped being about them as a group and more as a vehicle to launch Nicole into solo stardom. Some of it had to do with Nicole, some of it had to do with management. But there's a reason why the group fell apart and it wasn't because they were all besties who had no problem following their "roles".
I liked PCD, I loved many of their singles, but PCD is the prime example of trying to replicate the Destiny's Child "we're gonna put one member in front" and it failing. Even if Nicole was the strongest singer in the group, there was a way to go about incorporating all the girls into it. No one wants to feel like a glorified backup dancer/singer. That's how it came across.
