Why am I seeing only the Cases created by me and not the cases created by my team?
You likely have the role Overage Customer Portal Manager - User which allows you to see only your cases. Your portal administrator can grant you the Overage Customer Portal Manager - SU role which allows you to see cases opened by other people in your company.
How can I see what role/permissions I have?
The Support portal administrator of your company will be able to tell you what role you have been assigned. You can also infer this from the permissions available to you based on the role that you have. Available permissions and their respective abilities are described in Support Portal user roles.

One of the employees has left the company, can we remove that user from Apigee Support Portal?

I am a Partner and would be helping in creating and managing cases for an Apigee customer. Can I get access to Apigee Support Portal?

Is there any limit on the number of Support Portal users that can be added for a particular customer account? If the customer requests an increase in the number, do you charge them?
We do not impose a limit on the number of support users, though we do recommend that you keep the number of contacts to those that are knowledgeable of and work on the Apigee product. There is no additional charge for additional users.
Once the customer nominates a partner to raise cases on their behalf, is there a limit to the number of partner people who could raise cases? Again, if they want to increase the number of partner people to have access to the support portal, is there a cost?
We do not impose a limit on the number of support users. We recommend that you only add users that are knowledgeable of and work on the Apigee product in your company. Additionally, it is best to add users with knowledge of your specific implementation. There is no additional charge for additional users.
