It's possible that the company's values or behaviour have changed, but, more importantly, the decision to work at a company is mutual: both sides want it (the company expects the value an employee will bring exceeds the cost of their employment; hiring someone is not a charity), and they enter into this relationship when neither side knows everything about the other, certainly not how they would behave in the future.

You sound like an employee who thinks they're an employer.

Employees are 'the company.' Screwing over your employees is not in the companies best, long term interests.
You would not seek employment with the company under servile terms unless you needed employment to survive. The company needs you less than you need them, so they can get away with bossing you around.
It's vanishingly rare for an employer to be more reliant on an employee than the employee is on their employer.
a company doesn't keep you because you performed well. they keep an employee because they need them to be more profitable, nothing more, nothing less.
