If we pass, how quick should we expect a raise, how much of a raise?
Do not expect anything. It varies from company to company. I am the only PE in my office and still have not received any hike. The only kind of guaranteed thing is that you will receive a lot of interview calls with potential pay hike and promotion. Find the right opportunity and make a switch if your company don't value your PE.

I work for a municipality.  PE license gets you promoted which is 4 grades higher, 5% a grade.  It ends up being a 21.55% raise when it's all said and done, but when you first get promoted you get moved down 3 steps so it ends up being a 5% raise initially.  

 
Two types of torture, one comes from taking the exam and then the second to wait for the results.

But yes, please show us PASS!

"Look at me I have my PE durrrrrrrrrrrrrr"

 
It is going to be May 9th.
I mean, sure It's possible...  in the same way that it's possible to roll a two at the craps table.

Don't get your hopes up for that day. Just because it happens occasionally doesn't mean it's a safe bet though.

It is already 3 EST. They don't send out emails this late. 🤨
Emails have been sent out pretty late in the day, including after regular business hours.
