Of course, it is hard to enforce an unwritten contract...then again, it is no less a contract for being unwritten.
yes, but only if there is clear assent to all of the terms as discussed. it happens often when reducing an agreement to writing that there are other terms that come up that need further negotiation. it could be incentive packages that just weren't discussed, but i'll grant you that it is very rarely a base salary issue that needs to be renegotiated.
