In places with marginal tax brackets, no. The numbers are different where I live, but the principle (hah) is the same:
If you earn 291k a year, the first 191k is taxed at 24%. The money left over (100k) gets taxed at 32%. So if you get a raise or bonus, the “tax problem” is only that your extra money is immediately taxed at 32%.
