Unlikely. It will only drive a wedge between him and his obvious imcompitent coworkers who likely will also "ask for a raise" because they are higher on the totem pole.

At least in IT, its very difficult to leapfrog entrenched employees, the only real way to get ahead is to jump ship.

if what he says is true, there would be no need for 3 other IT persons that above him in seniority. The only thing he didnt mention is a Network Engineering role, but if the company is small, I am guessing from the level of incomeptance of the IT department is probably around 200 employees, you could easily contract that work out. The max an IT department size for that level of comany should be 2. There is also no need for an IT manager, they should report direct to the CFO.

clarification - IT meaning handles the hardware and infrastructure. not programming of course, that would be IS.
