I'd say it's true for taller people in some fields and some jobs, but it's not always the case. We're living in a more progressive world nowadays anyways.
Although studies like this one does suggest that being tall does pay off higher:

As such, the biggest correlation between height and salary appeared in sales and management positions--careers in which customer perception has a major impact on success. If customers believe a tall salesperson is more commanding, for example, they may be more likely to follow the salesperson's wishes, Judge says.
Accordingly, height was most predictive of earnings in jobs that require social interaction, which include sales, management, service and technical careers. The height effect also mattered--though to a lesser degree--in other jobs such as crafts and blue-collar and clerical positions, researchers found.
While that may be true for a lot of instances, personally from my anecdotal experience, it will depends and how actually good of work environment you actually have to be a lot less bias in that regard. I work in an aerospace company, not US-based but I've traveled in and out US and in other sites of our company, and I've seen high position roles filled with people of varying heights and races. No longer do white people fill managerial positions or tech leads nor do always be taller people. Some examples are ones that I've met, who are several supervisors shorter around 5'3 and 5'4. Engineering project managers at 5'5, and an associate director who's my same height. Our site director is the shortest I know of, who's literally 5'.
Again that's from my experience, there's still a lot of places with a lot of height bias. In my opinion though, if that's the case, it may be best to just quit that job anyways and move to somewhere else. That's arleady a red flag all things considering.
