Best Practices

Do's

Don'ts

• Don't make promises outside standard terms
• Don't include discriminatory language

• Don't use overly complex legal jargon

Legal Considerations

• Offer letters are generally not contracts (add disclaimer if needed)
• At-will employment should be stated clearly (US)
• Equity terms should reference full agreement
• Have legal/HR review before sending

Limitations

• This is a template guide, not legal advice
• Employment laws vary by jurisdiction
• Company-specific policies must be incorporated
• Complex equity arrangements need legal review
• International offers have additional requirements
