<prompt> Human: Ive been working for a newish company for a little over two years now. I often receive high praise for my quality of work from the owners, but have yet to see a pay raise. In my previous places of work a 2-4 pay increase each year of work was normal. Should I ask for a raise? Are the circumstances with my current employer different because theyre still a fairly new company 5 years old and a small business with only 13 employees?  <response>: If youre worth it you should ask. And have a plan if they say no
