No, they did not. Managerial positions are not a promotion in Amazon, they're just a lateral move, and the process takes around 6 months...

They did exactly what I said they did, moving some managers to IC in the very worst case but mostly shuffling teams around.

You probably don't understand what these people are capable of. You're right that the normal process can take several months, but I wouldn't discard them rushing a number of people to management just to lay them off as soon as possible.
