I've done +200 interviews at Amazon and I have never seen this happen. I only remember one single case where a HM was pushing to hire a clearly unqualified candidate. The Bar Raiser pushed back and didn't let it get through.

I've started observing this recently. I too didn't see such push earlier. Maybe because of recent supply crunch, hiring managers have become more desperate to save the head of the existing people in their team.
