I had a similar thing recently.

The problem is there's not much they can do until you're terminated, and after termination you need to wait six months to a year while a regualatory body investigates until you get your "letter to sue", and even then the $ you get will probably not be enough to retire on.

In the meantime, you'll have an employment gap and an employer who plays fast and loose with the law, so they might be willing to do other things like shit talk you during reference checks.

Even if they did something egregious like fire you for a protected reason despite ample evidence it's very hard to do anything about it if they're adamant they don't want to make a reasonable settlement offer.
