It's not the same at every firm. I was at EY and PwC.
At both EY and PwC, Partner calls you to tell you your comp increase. It's standard protocol.

OP, I have been through this compensation call over the past few years. It's usually a one-way conversation. So, don't try to go with the mindset of a negotiation. The numbers are all usually decided and set in stone. All the best!

I don't think there is any harm in doing your research and being prepared to state your case. The only downside to not negotiating is wondering what could have changed if you had

Last year I argued for a bigger raise and the partner was like "there's not much I can do but I'll try"... I never heard back from him. I got a 14% increase tho so I wasn't upset
