This question is about average annual raise.

Should I ask for a raise every year?

By Zippia Team - Dec. 7, 2022

Yes, you should ask for a raise every year if you don't receive one automatically. Generally speaking, most companies will naturally raise their pay over time; however, if you've been working for a company for over a year and haven't seen your salary go up, it's appropriate to ask for a raise.

Additionally, if you're starting a new job, you'll want to wait at least six months before you ask for a raise.
