Not much. If you don't perform up to their expectations you know your job is on the line. Of course they will enroll you on a Performance Improvement Program (PIP) which is just a formality and an excuse to fire you, after they're done with this process.

Edward Screven's reputation is that he does not provide a raise unless the person has another job offer in writing; then many times the new offer is over what he is willing to pay. It is not uncommon for team members who get good performance reviews can go years without raises.
