I don't know why it is but it is. Every company now has a mission/vision/culture statement touting trust, respect, inclusivity, innovation, ethics, and similar flapdoodle (dis)embodied by Corporate Memphis grotesqueries. In fact, it is getting harder to find product information on company websites because home page real-estate is liberally sprinkled with this stuff in between some diffuse product blurbage. There may be people within the firms that embody some or most of those things. A fraction of those may be low-level managers. Anyone in a position of power achieves that power by doing the exact opposite of the published boilerplate.

Touting trust by the company is PR. Building trust by the team is daily practice as basic and real and important as the rest of the actual work. I understand your cynicism regarding the often empty words of PR statements.
