According to a 2017 forecast from WorldatWork, salary increase budgets for U.S. employers will grow 3% on average in across most employee categories. However, some employees who are considered high
performing, can expect to receive as much as 4.5% to 5% and, in some cases, up to 10%. Some other factors that can affect the raises are the pay practices and philosophy of your organization, the industry you are employed in, and the job market.
