It does depend a bit. The tax brackets are nonsense of course, but there are countries with allowance systems that don't fully decrease to zero as your income rises and at some point end in a hard cap. In those cases a raise might end up costing you more due to losing the last part of an allowance.
But that never withheld me from accepting a raise, you're going to have to push pass that threshold at some point anyway.
