Yes, it is legal. However, such an action may have consequences on items such as pay and certain types of employment agreements. For example, if the revised offer letter reduces your pay retroactively, the employer is not allowed to deduct that pay decrease. The amount of the reduction does not matter as long as you are making above minmum wage.
