Dear Mrs. Mueller:
I want to notify you of a change in the offer we gave you for the Project Manager position. In addition to the responsibilities we outlined, you will be responsible for handling personnel decisions regarding the laboratory staff who assist the senior researchers. This includes hiring, firing, and carrying out payroll procedures for a staff of approximately 20 people. We estimate this will take 10–15 percent of your time.
In the past, senior scientists have taken care of their own personnel decisions. However, this task has proven to be a distraction from their research responsibilities. We have decided to consolidate these duties under the project manager position.
Please notify me of your decision by March 15. We look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
[/tab]

Dear Mr. Zappa:
Due to a miscalculation in our hiring budget, we have to revise our original salary offer for the Director of Public Relations position. Instead of the $55,000 we initially offered, the position will earn $52,000 annually. The $3,000 accidentally added is the money the company will put toward health insurance for you and your dependents. Thus, $55,000 reflects total compensation including salary and benefits.
We regret any confusion this may have caused and hope it will not effect your decision negatively. You would be a welcome addition to our public relations team.
Sincerely,
[/tab]

Dear Ms. Shah:
In my letter of May 25 offering you the position of Director of Operations I told you the benefits package for the position included the use of a company car. As of May 30, California Micro Devices revised its policy on the extension of company car privileges. It was previously standard practice to include a car in all departmental directors’ benefits packages. However, those privileges will now only be available to salespeople.
As prospective Director of Operations, I am sure you can appreciate that this change in policy is an attempt to reduce operating costs to ensure the long-term viability of the company.
This change does not represent any diminished desire on our part to have you join us. You would be a welcome addition to our company.
Sincerely,
[/tab]

Dear Mr. Greenberg:
We extended you the offer to join our acquisitions department as Acquisitions Manager with the understanding that you would work out of our Logan office. Since we made the offer the acquisitions department has been slated to move to our downtown Westerville office at 1278 Shore Point Ave. They are trading places with the human resources department which is expanding and needs more space. Thus, if you accept the position, you will be working out of the Westerville office.
We are sorry to make such a change at this late date. If you would like information on Westerville and its schools, Sherry McDaniels, our relocation coordinator, would be happy to help you. Her number is 555-1939, Ext. 220. We hope you decide to join us in March.
Sincerely,

Dear Mrs. Solomon:
As a result of our current restructuring, the hours of work we originally included in our job offer have been adjusted. If you agree to accept the supervisor position, you will alternate between a work week of four 12-hour shifts (w/three days off) and a work week of three 12-hour shifts (w/ four days off). We are switching our entire manufacturing facility to this schedule in order to increase productivity and produce consistency.
We hope this change will not effect your decision to accept our offer. We have every confidence that you will succeed at Kreewell Manufacturing.
Sincerely,
[/tab]
