Manager who refuses to promote

Does anyone feel hopeless? It’s a never ending cycle of chasing money and the sad part is I am not even making anything close to my peers with same years of experience. I am just disappointed, my direct manager refuses to promote me even after I have consistently told him that I want to be PM from the very start and followed pursuit for projects to highlight my skills. Yet he continues to say do the job without the money, you don’t really need the title. I understand that this is the way forward for coelevating and collaborating but it professionally hurts me if I don’t have the title.

I'm sorry to hear that. It sucks when you feel like you're stuck in a rut. Have you tried talking to your manager about your concerns? Sometimes it helps to have an open and honest conversation about your career goals.

It sounds like your manager is taking advantage of you and your skills. You should look for a new job that will give you the title and pay you deserve.

I feel your pain. I'm in the same boat. My manager refuses to promote me even though I have the skills and experience. It's frustrating.
