I am a 63 year old Director Level professional with the same employer for over 30 years. As a result of an internal re-organization, my current title/role has been deemed as no longer valid and has to change. I am being asked to consider a new role(duties) & title. Compensation likely to be the same. Position as described at the moment somewhat different from my current position though being positioned at the same seniority level - however debatable and under discussion. Do I have to accept all the role and duties as described? What are things I should question? What happens if I cannot reach an agreement? What are my rights?
