<prompt> Human: I want to preface this by saying that I hate the company I work for, and am actively looking for new work, but until something comes along, asking for a raise is my only other opportunity to increase my income. I work for a mid-size company where I report directly to the CEO and COO. Last year I emailed the CEO asking him if we could sit down at some point and discuss my compensation because of a lot of new work I had taken on in recent months. I had a list of accomplishments ready to go over, as well as examples of what my market value was. He emailed me back and told me that it wasnt necessary for us to meet because they give raises when they deem it appropriate and are always fair about it. This obviously pissed me off because it sounded like he was blowing me off, but then a week later he gave me a 20 raise. It has now been a year since I got that raise, and since the company doesnt do reviews or performance meetings of any sort, I want to ask for another one. The team I managed has grown in the last year, and Ive also gone above and beyond by helping a few other departments cut out inefficient processes that should be more than enough to argue for at least a small raise. Im just not sure how to approach it a second time. Should I just email him again as I did last time, and ask for a meeting? He obviously didnt respond well to it the first time, but... I did also get a raise. Im not sure if theres a better way I should approach it considering what he said last time. Im hoping you guys could share some thoughts on how to proceed. Thanks!  <response>: Just ask for another performance evaluation talk..in that meeting bring up compensation.Would probably at the very least give you brownie points for wanting feedback and caring.Im entirely impressed that you seem to thrive in a company you hate, I dont think alot of people could do that.
