In practice, you can sometimes switch to contracting for the same company (vs being an employee). The limits for contracting rates are usually much higher than limits for salaries, so there's plenty of room for a raise. I don't know if it's legal in the US, but I've seen it happen in Europe (Poland, Sweden).
