No more than 30% is the general rule of thumb. But recognize that changes depending on salary, location and other financial obligations you may be responsible for

Today I had a very transparent conversation with my TA Director. I was not eligible for the merit increase due to my start date. I was very open about wanting to grow with an organization and even talked about hoping that they could rectify this in someway. She mentioned that she was going to look into it with her boss to see where they can meet me at. Or do you think I overstepped the line By being so transparent about my wants for compensation and within the organization?
