The problem is it might be worth it to the company, but likely not to you - a 5% productivity bump likely results in $100k a year.

You really think there's zero correlation between productivity and wages? Sure, it's noisy and you might stay at $100k or even get fired. But I'd say the expected wage value of 5% higher productivity on a large sample is at least 3.5% or so.
