If someone still looking for the answer, you need to set "Access-Control-Expose-Headers" along side with the response. In example :
Access-Control-Expose-Headers: Content-Type,Authorization,X-RateLimit-Limit,X-RateLimit-Remaining,X-RateLimit-Reset

change your callback:
xhr.onreadystatechange = function() {
if(xhr.readyState == 4){//if you are looking only for HTTP 200, then add condition xhr.status == 200
console.log(xhr.getResponseHeader("Authorization"));//will get your response header
window.location.href = xhr.responseURL;//Redirect works
}
}
Note: readyState Holds the status of the XMLHttpRequest . Changes from 0 to 4:
0: request not initialized
1: server connection established
2: request received
3: processing request
4: request finished and response is ready
