There were no automatic raises for cost of living, or real appraisals. I had to ask for a raise each time I felt it appropriate. It worked OK for me, but the lack of methodical processes must lead to a lot of unfairness. From my former VP it sounded chaotic with no fixed dates for them to roll up requests.

Today is my last day. No raises for 7.5 years and a declining culture.
