It is appropriate for the applicant to express their concern and ask for a specific time frame when their performance will be reviewed and if a raise will be possible. This allows for potential negotiation and provides information to the applicant to make a better decision. Simply accepting the job and hoping for the best may lead to dissatisfaction or resentment towards the employer, while declining the job outright may not be necessary if there is room for negotiation. Asking when raises will be given also does not address the immediate concern of the offered salary.
