There are budget constraints; they can't give so many raises that they are no longer making money. And the larger the company, the more strict the guidelines for giving raises becomes. In a smaller company, it's pretty much up to the managers. In a bigger company, upper management and HR set standards and scores that are worth a certain amount of a raise, and set a cap on what any one person's raise can be. I work for a pretty large company and we get a scorecard each year where our manager rates us on a bunch of things; add up the score and that's the raise. The highest score you can get is a 6, which means a 6% raise. If your manager wants to give more than that, they have to reclassify the employee, which is to basically promote them or give them a different job description.

NO! But that would depend on what they value job to be worth.
