We are in a very funny situation where I just spent two weeks fixing FE bugs and there are so many left. I asked to add integration tests but the answer was “no”, cause we can’t test the UI and all of that.

Just add them. You’re a developer and automated testing is one of our tools. A woodworker wouldn’t ask permission to sand.
Then I will be scolded for wasting time adding tests
Exactly this. They aren’t for the company, they’re for you to have confidence that your shipped code isn’t going to blow anything up.
