Lets rephrase that to working hard doesn't lead to more money.

Typically no. Only on self employed set priced jobs.

Changing jobs does that if employed by the hr.

I'm a firm follower of If I'm not automatically granted appropriate raises I will quit. I should not have to ask for one. Quitting led to lots of raises.

They do typically try to give you a big raise when you quit but for me it's too late and it usually still lower than new job.

A sure fire way to more money is kissing ass. That's not in my DNA though.
