They are playing you for a fool. Why do you like this company? I've been treated better than that at every company I've been with, entry level or later, and been offered advancement with way less contribution. Are you in the US or elsewhere? I wonder if there's a cultural difference at play? From what I can see from your post, your managers are totally just stringing you along. I wouldn't trust them at all after that, much less work hard and try to impress them. Find a better job if you can, when you can, where people actually treat you with respect instead of just toying with your emotions and career. Your current place sounds straight up abusive.
