I'm currently earning $75k managing 4 recruiters for a revenue-focused company. My non-manager colleague does the same core work, but doesn't manage a team, and makes nearly the same. We've hit our year-end revenue goal early, so would asking for a 20% raise right now be too aggressive?

The power is in the company not the individual now. It will eventually swing but not in the near term. You cut a deal with the company when you took the job. The company’s not inclined to pay you more because someone else cut a better deal. Tread lightly less you be tagged a problem

It might be best to start strong, and you could potentially settle for 15-18%. This does depend on the company. If they only ever give 1-3% raises, I’d probably not expect so much. You really have to emphasize the management scope you have taken on.

I think you have some backup data to help validate your request. I'm thinking if you are asking for 20% then the pay raise will likely be negotiated down. If you think there's an appetite for additional pay, try it. The worst thing they can do is tell you know and if they do there will likely be guidance on how to get an increase.
