I’m totally cool with it but I like who I’m going to report to
I know many of my team members are VERY unhappy because one of our managers is not the best
Our company did the same thing, except they laid off half the managers.
....what exactly is the point of that? I don't get it. I would be devastated. My manager is so awesome, and that type of boss doesn't come around often. Arbitrarily having that yanked away would have me so bummed.

The purpose is that they are shifting the teams to covering projects based on the phase rather than side of production
It certainly feels arbitrary for some of the moves but for me I’ve been supporting late phase for years so the new org is going to make my life a little easier
I would be really happy about it. My team has two managers, and I really connect well with the manager I don't report to. I'm pretty sure my current manager really doesn't like me and isn't ashamed to make that clear. Switching managers would kind of be a dream for me, lol.
Mine is hands off, but at the same time, he provides zero support. He provides me with no resources, doesn't assist with prioritization, doesn't support my development, and he actually seems to put more effort into creating additional barriers to make my work more difficult.
This happens where I work sometimes. It’s not ideal but it could be a better fit for you
Would love it. My manager is awful.
