for anyone who work in bigger co will know there is no such thing as a mgr having full power to decide whatever he feel like paying. there will always be a budget & approvals needed. unless its a small co where the towkay do his own hiring... my advice is question regarding job scope, culture, kpi etc ask the hiring mgr, other things like pay, bonus, car, benefit etc. always get confirmation from hr first, dun just assume base on a hiring mgr empty promise.
