MAXDOP =1 means disabling the parallelism. That's why SQL Server doesn't consider parallelizing the query.That's why I couldn't see that in the execution plan you posted.

Exactly, but my plan is using MAXDOP =0 ( 24 cores) in my case. Did you notice this?
MAXDOP is not the same as "Degree of Parallelism" on the properties sheet of the INSERT operator. If you're still unsure, inspect the properties sheet of any of the index/table scans/seeks, which show "Parallel = False".
Right, MAXDOP means the maximum it would go to based on Cost, in my case it should't go pass DOP =1 when cost is greater than 5, so cost is greater than 5 but it is using DOP = 0?
It's a serial plan, yes. It's an expensive plan so you would expect it to be a parallel plan. I'd guess you've used MAXDOP = 1 as a query hint.
No hints used .
"Degree of Parallelism" on a plan operator typically shows 1 for a serial plan, hence asking if you checked the plan before obfuscation.
Not having the un-obfuscated plan or even the query is unhelpful. I'm bored with guessing now.
