Current Company: Adobe | CS2 | India | 35 base | ~ 5 AIP | Some-Stock (check details) | 10.2 Yr

My 4 year joining stock (200) is about to expire next year (2.5 times of original value). Every year (including this cycle) I generally get an average refresher. Also with ESPP, my TC is suddenly spiked close to 75-80L

This year is the max TC that I can have, as the max chunk will be vested by next year in March, and post this TC will drop significantly, so I'm strongly thinking to jump the ship to another company.

My question:
What salary should I quote to the new employee? How to hide this info that the vesting period is about to end. Also, Shall I include ESPP profit In TC. What details you guys share when asked for salary details like pay-slip, last year's reward letter, etc? How did you justify your difference between base + AIP with actual TC (base + aip + espp gain + rsu) ?

    I generally don't include ESPP gains in my TC. But yeah, no recruiter will question you regarding your 4 yr cliff. Just make sure that you don't explicitly mention that you are looking out due to this reason.

      Yes, I won't mention. But what details do they ask to verify the stock grants? Generally, What details you guys share? This will be my first time negotiating with stocks.

      At least, here in Uber, we can also see the current value of our stocks which are not vested. I generally use that number in my TC and share the screenshot if the recruiter wants.

    @OP, how much refreshers does Adobe give annually at MTS2 level and does everyone get them every year?
