At some point, you need to admit that you aren't exactly making the situation any better when your own performance isn't exactly getting it done and is contributing to the overall crappiness. 

The way I deal with crappy, greedy management is to do my job, nothing more, nothing less. No extra effort, above and beyond, etc, except in the service of helping a coworker get through their crappy day. I enforce my professional boundaries,  and ensure my ass is covered 24/7. I will not shield management from the consequences of their idiotic behavior, and make no bones about it. 
My job does pay well, and has been a blessing during the pandemic, therefore I stay.
