Does not getting a pay raise signal for something to come…?
So I've had a talk with my manager and lead and they determined I wasn't getting a pay raise due to communication. My current job is remote and so as my manager and lead. During my review, they've stated I'm not calling/communicating with them enough. They seem to be very A type personality and I'm not the type of person to just ring up my manager on a Saturday to talk about my personal life. (my manager has does to be by the way) I try to keep professional and separate my work life and personal life.
I do however call them if something urgent comes up and do talk with them during our project meetings and explain issues and give suggestions. I have multiple projects going and has been very hectic (60hr weeks for months) As a result, they've said I don't qualify for a raise. This really has never been an issue with my previous companies and I've been with this company for a little over a year. Is this a sign of things to come?

Please be a bit more explicit about what you are worried about. Also, you don't qualify for a raise because you have multiple projects?

What do they mean by not communicating? Having been a remote worker in a team that wasn't remotely friendly, I would err on the side of over communicating. Also take the time to ask other people how they're doing. You don't have to get onto personal topics, but such as how is the weather, did they do anything fun on the weekend, and things like that.

@ErnestFriedman-Hill How do we know they are not already getting paid an appropriate rate? Maybe in those 60 hours they are only doing a standard week's worth of work?

"I have multiple projects going and has been very hectic (60hr weeks for months) As a result, they've said I don't qualify for a raise." - as a result of what? As a result of your lack of communication? Or as a result of something else related to multiple projects, hectic schedule, or the need to work 60 hours? This sentence is not clear.

"60hr weeks for months" and you still work there?!
Man, that is the biggest signal that you need to update and then use your CV. That is exploitation. And since you do not get a salary raise, I assume you do not get paid for the 50% extra-work either.
This is not a sign of the things to come, it is a proof of the things that already Are!!
Main Answer
There are bosses like the one(s) you described, which value you talking to them more than you doing real work. I know this from experience. I was shocked 2 times in the past because of this:
Why for many years I did not get the raises and the recognition that I deserved (actually, more than deserved)?
Why did I started to get a lot of recognition after I started reporting to my (relevant) boss(es), even though my amount of work declined significantly? It was senior level work, true, but still, the levels of stress were through the floor compared to before.
Simple solution: give your bosses what they expect, not what you think they need.

Yes it is.
They will squeeze you like a lemon for the most work you can do for the lowest amount of money.
Is communication part of your job? Was is in your yearly goals?
Did you had task named "communication"?
It show that they just don't want to pay you and use some trivial excuse.
What is "enough communication"? Monthly written reports? Daily verbal ones?
Records of key pressed during a week and mile travelled by mouse?
It cannot be surprise rule showed at review. If your boss felt you don't communicate enough they should let you know when it was happening not wait for review to cite it as a reason for not giving you a rise.

Please be a bit more explicit about what you are worried about. Also, you don't qualify for a raise because you have multiple projects?

What do they mean by not communicating? Having been a remote worker in a team that wasn't remotely friendly, I would err on the side of over communicating. Also take the time to ask other people how they're doing. You don't have to get onto personal topics, but such as how is the weather, did they do anything fun on the weekend, and things like that.

If you have been working 60 hour weeks for months and they have denied you a raise, you should nope the heck out of there as soon as you can find another job.

@ErnestFriedman-Hill How do we know they are not already getting paid an appropriate rate? Maybe in those 60 hours they are only doing a standard week's worth of work?

"I have multiple projects going and has been very hectic (60hr weeks for months) As a result, they've said I don't qualify for a raise." - as a result of what? As a result of your lack of communication? Or as a result of something else related to multiple projects, hectic schedule, or the need to work 60 hours? This sentence is not clear.
