You not have only have your immediate boss, but the deptt heads etc also to please & how far will you go to do taht. In my opinion, give yourself a timeframe & keep yoru expectations realistic & if things are not going as one has anticipated, MAKE A MOVE TO ANOTHER COMPANY WITH HIGHER PAY PACKET. Based on my experience, these things practically don't work. Company look their own profitablity 1st & by that yardstick, who so ever is having better parental linkages,e g. in Govt. offices etc, will invariably get salary hike even promotions, as well, year after year. Suggetions are good but impractical.
