Welcome aboard!
Regarding "not working for you" they only work when you are grouped and dont move during a special with a windup and when you are grouped be sure to know what status your groupmates have:
When you are -on leave-, your group bonus work only for ppl -on leave- in your group.
When you are -combantant-, they work for -combantant- for your faction and -on leave- ppl in your group.
And when you are -special forces- only for -special forces-/-combantant- for your faction and -on leave- ppl in your group.
Regarding the duration of rally and retreat. As far as I know retreat last one minute, about the cooldown/recharge dont know (though its very long). And rally should last 45 seconds and the cooldown/recharge is 60 seconds (to my observations).
Retreat is working, my teammates love it when I hit it and I see everybody charging ahead of me. To keep up with them I hit my burstrun right after it.

Well, from what I've experience, use Rally before combat. It seems to last a lot longer than it does during combat. Same with Steady Aim if you take it. Can't tell you much about retreat though. Never use it. The people I do things with are quick and strong enough that I haven't used it yet. But, what Retreat is, is Group Burst Run. So, ask your team if they notice moving faster. That's really all the advice and experiences I've had, have or know. Hope that helps.
