We've got a 5% cap now too.. for yearly raises. But apparently you have to be really outstanding to get the full 5%. They are trying to save $$ since the economy is still slow for us. I got 3.5% this year. Better than nothing I guess.
It used to be 10% for the first 3 years I worked here (and you always got the full 10%), and then no one got raises at the beginning of last year because of the economy.
The thing that gets my goat is that I heard on the radio that even city workers are getting 3.5% just as a cost of living increase. So essentially, going by those numbers I didn't even get a real raise.
