Just wondering, are there any chances that after unofficially telling my employer that my visa has been approved and sending it for quality check, that INZ could change the decision?

It's technically possible: one scenario is that the case officer misses something, quality check sends the application back for remedial work, and then your circumstances change in a way that results in you no longer meeting requirements (e.g. you lose your job or get into trouble with the law). I can't think of a scenario where this is common; all scenarios that I can think of would be rare.
And, what Erin said.
Thank you Kelerei.
Wish there was a way to find out if my new CO has made the decision in my favor or not. Guess i will have to wait for around 3 weeks till the 2PC is done to find out what's actually happening.
As Erin said, it's not supposed to happen that a CO tells an applicant what his/her recommendation is before it's been through 2pc, for the reason that Kelerei has mentioned - that if the checking turns up an error, what the CO thought about the case could turn out to be wrong. This could be in either direction - s/he thought approval, but it needs to be rejected, or s/he thought rejection, but it turns out to be approvable. So if the applicant had based life-changing decisions on the untrue 'hint', it would be very bad.
Guys, I have a confirmed news that INZ have allocated COs to the applicants who submitted applications in Jan / Feb 2019. One of my friend , got inquiry from CO yesterday asking pay slips etc. He is working in security company and earning 57 k. Application was filed on 7 Feb 2019. Isn’t strange but encouraging- they are moving forward
I called INZ and to my surprise I had an officer on the phone with no wait. However, he told me my application has not been assigned to a CO (lodged 08 Feb 19).
