Seal Thanks for the replies. Yeah, I've decide to just move on. Didn't want to take the risk, since I really wanted this job.

Is it ok if I call them back tomorrow morning, to ask them if the salary is still open to negotiation?

Please let me know your views. Thank you!
Unles you are a specialist or senior level manager, better don't try this kind of stunt.

Even if HR willing to give in, they will just "take it back" later by reducing your bonus and increment potential.

Unregistered You've already compromised your negotiating position by saying yes.

They have no incentive to reopen negotiation.
