Why do some companies bypass the initial HR screen and go straight to a hiring manager interview? Is this good or bad, or just depends on company policy?

I think any time you can get directly to the hiring manager is a good thing.

I have not come across any company, US located, that does not do a first round screen to make sure the candidate does not require visa sponsorship now or in the future.
From there it’s always the hiring manager. Final round, sometimes after all interviews, the internal HR personnel (not the recruiting agent) come for a last interview.
