Micromanagement started after wfh culture

Senior managment is extremely out of touch with employees. They brag about what a great place this is to work but that's not the daily experience of employees. Salaries are far below average, raises are non exsitent, and laptops/computers/technology provided to employees is of the lowest quality. One example - the company cut salaries and benefits at the start of the pandemic and then bragged about record profits. The salary cut has been restored but for many of us last year's pay was substantially lower. That's great support for your employees during a time of crisis ! The culture is blame oriented - you will always be told your work is not good enough. Employees are expected to get work done regardless of the hours needed. Staffing is way below what is needed and the attitude is that you just need to "get it done" and not to complain. There is no trust between groups and a lot of infighting and toxic behaviour. There are good managers and leads but they are constantly blocked by the ridiculous requirements from senior management.
