This seems very strange. Amazon has a serious hiring process. Hiring managers cannot just hire people as they wish. There's a bar raiser and all interviewers provide their feedback. The bar raiser's job is to prevent hiring someone who didn't perform well in the interviewers. Internal transfers are different, the hiring manager has all the freedom.
