I got a $15K raise last month, from $60 to $75K. I expect a much bigger one next year. It's not impossible to get those raises, but you have to align your thinking with the way the company operates, have supporters in the company, and bring real value to the table.
If you're just checking boxes or asking for more money "just because", then you deserve the arched eyebrow you're bound to get.
