Has anyone negotiated their raise at comp conversations in the past? I got very high ratings but I'm a staff so I know we basically all get the same raise. Is negotiating even an option for me?

Have been in PA for nearly 30 years. Only 1 change in comp after complaining. As a staff, good luck with that

You’re a staff, you have no leverage and you haven’t had an opportunity to truly differentiate your performance. Trying to argue comp now will only serve to brand you as whiny millennial. If a few extra thousand a year makes a difference to you, you’re better off jumping firms. Long term though, jumping can hurt you if you’re sacrificing a developed internal brand for the salary gain.

The only instances I’ve seen people successfully negotiate for adjustments (without moving / transferring service lines) have been highly valuable managers / sr managers lifers in groups that poached peers from other firms at much higher salaries.

You can’t negotiate anything as a staff.

like

A) we don’t have ratings any more

B) comp conversation is too late in the process to make a change, unless you are vocalizing that you are resigning then in my experience they cannot change anything since the decision is already made. But lay the groundwork for next year

1. Should I ask for Senior Mgr (AD) grade - to which they have already said NO
