Anyone been on the other side of the table when someone asked for a raise? What kind of things do partners take into consideration or evaluate when that request comes in?

At my firm (top 20) line partners have no input on raises at all and raises aren’t provided outside the normal review cycle. Only if a valued employee resigns will the firm potentially match the offer to get that employee to stay. However, in the current environment the firm would likely accept the resignation and not negotiate.

In my experience most don't care. A select few specifically request it not be.

If you are at EY, they don't negotiate, they just tell you your new comp for the next year, partners have zero say in the comp given. The only time they may negotiate is if you are trying to change service lines and you would still need to have an outside offer letter but with the current labor market, they would probably be happy to let you walk.

The pain factor in them if you leave.

Generally speaking I haven't seen negotiations take place you're just being told what the raise is. However they do take into consideration everything that is included in your review for the yera.

Are you referring to an annual raise, or the process when someone asked for a raise separate from the annual raise?

My school deliberately cut the number of classes that the specials teachers teach so that we could be building subs for quarantined and sick teachers (we are hybrid). So... I teach fewer classes (which is a relief because specials teachers teach way more classes than core teachers normally) but I'm pulled for most of my planning periods to babysit classes. I need my planning periods so I can redo my ENTIRE curriculum... and I just feel unappreciated, used, and nothing more than a babysitter.
