The insecurity around asking for a raise is not new but has changed over time, according to a 3-year study conducted by Robert Half. Last year, only 46% of professionals felt confident when asking for a raise; in 2015, the percentage was 56%.

More than 1,000 U.S. workers employed full-time in office environments were surveyed by an independent research firm for it. The survey was also conducted in 2015 and 2016.
