Is it appropriate to send a letter, in writing, for a performance review and raise? I was told I'd get a review in 30-days. It has now been 6 months. My immediate supervisor agrees that I need a raise but will not go to the vice president and stand up for me. Should I send the VP and my supervisor a letter since I've asked my super. numerous times and he's done nothing?

Actually, my supervisor says "I deserve" a raise, but he doesn't like conflict which, I guess, he thinks might happen w/the VP.

No. The surest way to piss off your supervisor is to go over his head.
It sounds like your supervisor is hesitant, or is afraid to stand up for you. Nevertheless, he IS your supervisor. About the only thing I could recommend is start looking , as it appears he is not living up to his word or doing his job.

I assume you are talking e-mailing the VP? If so, just make sure that you have e-mailed your supervising stating that you have requested several times for your review and raise and have gotten nowhere. Then if he gets pissed about your letter to VP you have proof that you went through proper channels first.
