How to Ask for a Raise and Actually Get It

September 23, 2026 · 1 min de lecture

Timing, evidence, and the conversation structure that makes a raise request land.

A raise request works best when it is planned, not reactive.

Time it around performance reviews

Bring evidence, not just tenure

Document specific contributions and results since your last raise or hire date.

Name a number

Vague requests get vague answers — propose a specific percentage or figure.
