Often, all you want to shout at your employer is show me the money! But remember a career is long game, and very often you will need to make difficult decisions relating to remuneration. Sometimes, it is also worth implementing strategies to make more with what you have at a given moment. Whichever way your fiscal balance sheet falls, it is a pretty good bet that the more value you add in the workplace, the more your shares (and dividends!) will go up. PAY will give you some good ideas on how to make that happen.
