Why was ACN raise so bad... I was told I am a top performer and I received a 0.82% raise? Individual bonus was 8%? Does this mean my ratings sucked? By CC confirmed my ratings were good..

No it could be that you are already higher in your band (not that I know what that yours is) but that might be a reason

I'm an Analyst at 60k. A few friends of mine are SAs at 75-85k. Most of the Consultants on my team make mid 80s to mid 90s.

@OP You are def on the high end. Newly promoted TC managers aren't making much higher than that.

The new system places more of an emphasis on the bonus to reward strong performance and the salary increases are used to bring you to the correct level for the market and the skills the company is looking for. I got a 28% raise when I got promoted to M, however, my raise included recognition for exceptional achievement. I was in band 3 out of 4 for my previous career level, so I know I wasn't at the bottom end of the scale. I also received a 8% bonus, which was at the high end for my career track and level. Last year I got 4% and 4%, so I'm pretty happy this year.
