This is pretty much standard. Any offer that is not written is easily disputed - you have no proof of an offer. To be honest, this works the other way too. Candidates who verbally accept an offer can and do renege on their acceptance. Hence the need for a written offer and acceptance.

If a company cites internal re-org as a reason to hold off on the written offer, I would think twice before accepting cos you never know if you quit your current job and move there only to find yourself retrenched after a few months cos of re-structuring.
