You never get a raise (above inflation) by doing your current work “better” or “harder”. You get a raise by changing roles completely or adding on responsibilities that expressly is worth some extra pay. Or changing company.
But as an employee, I’ve come to realize that I don’t value my pay as what I do, but how much time per day I dedicate towards my work. Time is all we have, really.
