As I saw igbesa the same thought came to my mind too.


The microbiologist and secretary is a no no for me, workload will almost kill you if you complain they will say its in your letter.

Writing offer letter as if you are going to a war zone

Microbiologist

or secretary , they should choose one .


Or is it a very new company?? @ OP
Is not a new company, according to them they have been existing since 1981. Am living in Lagos but to go to work on Monday morning, go home on Friday evening to resume back on Monday morning

Note the offer letter was sent via email. From your awesome advise so far, I gave them this reply..........


The Director.
................................




Dear sir,

Plead for Modification of offer letter

I have received your offer letter and I will gladly accept to work with your organization if all these will be considered.

In the view of this " I am directed to offer you a position in our organization as Head Microbiologist and the chairman's secretary."
I want to clarify you that I only applied for the post of microbiologist, while you asked me to help you with secretary work for a mean time before your organization employs a new Secretary. So with this, I plead that this offer letter will be modified strictly to the post of a microbiologist only. I will still help with the secretary work for a time being which you have to state the time interval your organization will employ a secretary. This is to enable me discharge my duty as a microbiologist effectively and as required.


Also, as much as I am expecting to get salary increment after the six months probation period. I am still insisting to be given a day off on Wednesdays in order to help me put my home in place since I will be staying in the factory's quarter within the week. Thanks in anticipation.

Yours Faithfully,
.............................

In all my 10+ years of working in the corporate world. I have never seen an offer letter so appalling.

This employer comes across as unwelcoming and rigid, your work conditions seem stringent and suffocating.

If I received this, I would turn it down because the workplace feels like a prison, where I will be an inmate.

The pay is not so great either for me to jump in.You will do more than just receiving/sending mails as the secretary.

I don't know your home situation so discuss this with your spouse before you make a final decision.
Thanks dear

pansophist:
This is a slave contract disguised as an employment contract. Do not accept this. Too many red flags. Six months of probation (without explicitly stating if it is a paid probation), two months resignation (instead of one month). theft warning (implying the projection of immorality of employees), and the overall decorum of the spirit the letter was written with. You have to be really desperate, without options, and did far worse job to accept this one.


I have not accept the offer dear, I am on the opinion of turning it down that is why I asked for advice.
Move on.

Na the general nature of some appointment letter be this. Dem dey get harsh tone. People dey shout reject reject reject...

If you know that you and your husband are not financially stable it will be reasonable to reconsider by discussing this with your husband if he will be comfortable with it.
Work with them for a period of a month or two and if you feel their working condition is not convenient for you, then you can resign. This will be better than rejecting the offer at first sight. Don't be surprised that many of those advising you are still be fed by their parents. You've bills to pay and so much responsibility to shoulder. You can't be asking your husbbi for money at all times.



Since you don't have a child yet, discuss it with your husband again...
Thanks dear

2 months salary in lieu, that reads like a place where salary is owed. Thier first impression is not good, accept that offer only when you are desperate and make sure you have serious plans to move to a more convenient place.
Thanks dear

Please reject this Offer. I am an HR person and trust me, you will suffer if you accept this. Head Microbiologist for 60k? Look at the tone of the letter! And what do they mean by 6 month probation? 6 Freaking month!!! Just for probation!
Thanks dear

punisha:
This sounds like a "take my offer or I shove it down your throat"

Extra hours you will work is it for free?
Why 60days notice?
Shouldn't the appraisal after probation come with a raise in salary too?
Why make life difficult for someone when you are still paying them peanuts?
You already are uncomfortable with the offer...niw u have made me uncomfortable with it too
They said there will be salary increment after the six months probation. But I doubt that because in the job advert, they stated the salary range is 40-50k. We were upto 10 people that went for the interview, they choose me because I have 5 years experience and have attended some training with NAFDAC , so I insist they should raise the salary because I am the first person that will be working as a microbiologist in their firm. I am their to start everything from beginning, both working in Lab, developing all the documents needed by NAFDAC, etc. I think what they want to do is after I must have developed those documents, and placed SOPs on how each equipment is being used they will employ new person after six months to pay lesser salary and give me one excuse why they can't increase my salary.

Sopyopsy:
My dear accept it and if u can't cope along the line, biko leave after receiving ur salary. Don't give any stupid notice, moreover no standard org will be requesting for 2months notice. And also av it in mind that, they are employing u for 6months, after 6months they are getting another person to use. And also, don't move fully into the apartment, only go dere with hand luggage, in case u won japa without notice.
Thanks dear

Jamesbiodun:
did I just see Igbesa? are you staying around there? which factory is it Viju or Tiles, most of the factory in Igbesa are owned by Chinese and India... my advice for you is to get a better job, people working daily are treated bad by the Chinese or India master.
they want you to work without going home till weekend, that is very bad.
The company is owned by Nigerian. Thanks for your advice

What's "appointment offer" letter ? English don suffer. Next time, don't start work before receiving your appointment letter. You are only playing into the hands of your employer
I am yet to start work. Thanks for your advice
Jobs/VacanciesIs This An Offer Letter Or A Threat by Humbleamanda(op): 1:06am On Jun 26, 2020
Note, I applied for the post of microbiologist, and they plead with me to help them in doing little secretary work like receiving and sending email that they will get a new secretary within a short time. Now they have indicated in the offer letter that and taking two position just for 60k. Meanwhile this job required that I have to live in the factory quarters to go home on Friday evening. I am a married woman though still expecting to have children, I plead with them to give me one day off on Wednesdays they disagree. I want to turn down this offer, what is your candid advise?

RomanceRe: She Is Pregnant For Me But I Am Not Ready by Humbleamanda(f): 12:02pm On Jan 20, 2018
Bros, i smell something fishy here since she insisted of having unprotected sex with you.
And she have been confirmed pregnancy positive. To be sure if the baby is yours, take her to scan, that will only dictate how many weeks she has gone with pregnancy and you note the date you had sex with her and add 2 weeks to it, if corresponds with the weeks the scan dictate, that shows the pregnancy is yours.. Take for example if you have sex with her on 30th December, and she went for on 19th of January, from 30th Dec to 19th Jan is 3weeks add extra 2weeks (i.e from her last period to her ovulation ) if it dictates that she is 5 weeks pregnant that shows the baby is yours.
