I need some help navigating a conversation with my boss. I have been with our brand for 7 years (been with the same boss) but just came up on my 1 year anniversary with our corporate office last week. I had my review and received 4 out of 5 points. I received zero salary increase because I got a $2,000 bump earlier this year after they terminated an employee and I took on some additional tasks. Is it wrong of me to still think I should have received an additional bump?

The $2000 bump looks like it was compensation for taking on more tasks that are outside of the scope of your job description.
even if that did represent your salary increase for the year ,the year was not complete for them to really assess your contribution. I would go back to them and at least mention all of this and that your concern was you took on more work essentially for less pay since the $2000 was more to cover increased standard of living.
Technically they would also owe you from the moment they gave you the 2000 to the end of the year the weighted increase they did not consider in the $ 2000.
Hope that is clear. The math is not working out here so you definitely have caused to go to them and ask for justification.

Good luck

I would at least ask. While I understand the $2000 bump, that was for the additional tasks you're taking on not your regular yearly bump. I would at least bring it up and see what they're thinking.
