Two things worked for me.
1. Switch Jobs
2. Ask for at least $10K more money each time.
1:
Companies are aren't going to just give you money. They don't have much incentive to do that. Most people take their 3% cost of living increase (plus bonus and a few % if you are lucky).
Most of my contemporaries agree. You have to switch jobs.
2:
If you don't ask for it, you aren't going to get it. HR depts have more flexibility on hiring than raises. So coming in, make sure you get the salary/bonus/vacation/etc you want right off the bat.
