Re: Typical raise
I'd say pretty good , especially since your a newbie there. But you should try to understand what it means just so you have a basic idea of your performance so far.

Re: Typical raise
It is a solid "maintenance" raise that will keep you above inflation. It is not a big raise nor is it a promotion type of raise. Considering you just started, I would focus more on any feedback you have received.

[ QUOTE ] That's a hell of a raise considering that you've only been there 9.5ish months. [/ QUOTE ] FYP [/ QUOTE ] I stand corrected. Personally, I'd burn the place down.

Another thing you can do is to try to find out what the standard company wide raise is. At the end of the year management will usually decide to budget an additional X% for salary; then if X > 5.5% or whatever you got then you are underperforming. this is usually why it isn't very easy to negotiate this stuff, a lot of times your manager is just going to get 50k or whatever and split it among his team, so if you ask for more someone is going to get less (usually).
