That's what they SAY they want, but seeing is believing.

An outside hire to me will always have the leverage to implement more than someone that "already has the job" essentially.

Ferry can say I want "this this and this" and they can say "Oh ok sure you can have that", while someone like Zarren can say "I don't want the job unless I can do this this and this" and is in a better position to hold their feet to the fire.

I do not trust this organization. Obviously if Ferry gets the job I will give him a chance and hope for the best, but it would be a really bad sign in my eyes.

It's not even about leverage necessarily with Ferry. It's an already established relationship with already in place boundaries and prejudices. Ferry might think "I know they'll never go for this so I'm not going to ask". A brand new person would have a blank slate to work with and would ask for the moon until he figured out what not to ask for.
