Any position of power will attract unethical people on power trips. Politicians, police officers, tech managers, religious leaders and even school workers to some extent. Not everybody is like that, but there's always a significant percentage. It's part of life and you can't really avoid it.
I know this is absolutely not great advice, but: have you tried to just stop caring?
I think a lot of the problems get way worse when we care and want the company to succeed and try to do everything in our power to move things forward. When you stop caring and just think "I'm going to do my work and accept that water is wet, and if the company/teams sinks it's not really my problem, I tried" things suddenly become more bearable.
Have you ever experienced that feeling where you give your two-weeks (or two months depending on where you live) notice and then suddenly working there and finishing your assignments is cool and fun, simply because you don't really care about what happens to that specific company/team in the long term anymore?
