<prompt> Human: I work in the legal field and have worked for the same company for about a year. The company gave me my requested annual salary. I have taken on substantial responsibilities since I started working here and have a pretty good relationship with my supervisors and colleagues. I have not yet had any performance review.All this said, do I ask for a raise during the review or do I alert them prior that I want to discuss increasing my annual salary? I have seen several posts on reddit and elsewhere that contradict each other on this point.  <response>: I think the problem is is varies a lot by field and company. Does your company have a regular review cycle? It is common to be given a raise atafter your yearly review. If thats how they operate, once your raise has been set it can be depending on how the company operates a tough time to say thats not enough unless its so glaring youd actually consider leaving. Its preferable to either have a preliminary discussion before the review, or if your raise at the review is less than youd expectlike to ask what theyre looking for from you to achieve your desired salary and set your expectations for your next raise and get them on board with that.
