Ranked low on year end review

With no raise. And I absolutely do not agree. My boss told me the reason was that when I got my promotion last year it means that I’m on the bench for a management position. So with that said, I need to be going above and beyond regularly. I don’t even want to be in management. He told me that while last year I did the job, I got things done, it was not to my level. Meaning my pay grade level, and needing to “do more” than the job. Not to mention he never had a single conversation with me about any of this until the end of the year, giving me zero time to correct the “problem”. I feel stuck and hopeless, and unsure what or where I could even go to get the same type of pay. But being treated this way really is not sitting right…

My boss told me the reason was that when I got my promotion last year it means that I’m on the bench for a management position. So with that said, I need to be going above and beyond regularly. I don’t even want to be in management.

He told me that while last year I did the job, I got things done, it was not to my level. Meaning my pay grade level, and needing to “do more” than the job.

Not to mention he never had a single conversation with me about any of this until the end of the year, giving me zero time to correct the “problem”.

I feel stuck and hopeless, and unsure what or where I could even go to get the same type of pay. But being treated this way really is not sitting right with me and solidified that the big companies really don’t care. We just hired six people for our team last year (which doubled our size) and I’m confident this is part of the reason I’m getting shafted. That was the budget and it’s gone, but of course he can’t just tell me that.

Any suggestions on careers that are easy to get into / learn.. I’m all ears! I’d love to get out of the corporate grind.
