If your employer is aware that you enjoy your job and are not interested switching companies, that might lead them to not give you much of a raise -- since you're already happy and not going to leave. (Not everyone would think this way, but it's a fairly obvious line of reasoning).

Suppose your yearly review does not produce a result you are happy with. What are you going to do?

Are you cultivating alternative options for employment that you could tolerate and would give you the raise you desire? I.e. are you turning the inbound interest into actual offers for jobs and packages you'd be willing to accept?
