You'd be surprised, but that's not necessarily the case.

One of my friends was such a person in a shoe making company as a designer. Instead of giving her a raise, they fired her.

Cue them re-hiring her a month or two later after they found out the hard way that the less experience subordinate really couldn't handle the job of the two of them on their own.

So she was in a strong negotiating position, it just took 1-2 months for the negotiations to play out. I hope she bumped her rate up before returning.
