My goals on pay and company aren't that firm as obviously I may have to readjust my expectations now and expect to do so continuously.
I hope to find some more ideas and plan what I should do next.

In all my years of hiring and letting go staff, this is the 1st time I hear that having a manager title provides a career safety net. Nobody cares about job titles when it comes to hiring, having a name card that says manager certainly does not help in providing job security. What use is a silly manager title when during a recession thousands of Vice Presidents / Directors were getting fired everyday.
I think your 1st goal is to stop setting goals base on worthless things like business title.
