Recruiter reached out to me for making written offer, she wants to see my current rsu vesting and bonus schedule.
That seems to be that she’s asking to reveal my current TC which is too low for current mkt.
I believe it’s illegal to ask current TC in California.
How can I dart this question?
TC: 160 yoe 14+
Starting offer: 185 + 15%+ asking for 20k sign + g 11

For US hires, pay scale is different.
Specifically pointing out to the company that the question is illegal doesn’t nurture the positive vibes needed to lead to getting a great offer.
However if you have told them TC, you can argue that giving away RSU info would effectively be giving the base salary.
