Well there only so much extra they can pay. I know our hr lately has been stressing they don't really use cost of living as much as they use cost of labor (what it costs for talent in the location). this is why people in our NY office don't necessarily make that much more than people in other cities...while they have high col, they have tons and tons of potential candidates (driving down the Cost of labor). So although it probably costs 50% more to live in NYC than my market my peers in NY are only making 10% more.

What’s a fair expectation for my first raise? Publicly traded co with ~2500 employees. I’ve been doing litigation with the company for almost 3 yrs and have only had a 2% cost of living raise so far. Graduated in 2014. Base comp is $127.5k in the Philly area. I see salaries all over the place in this site and it’s hard to tell whether mine is competitive.
