I feel sorry for you working in such an environment, that really sucks.

I have received praise for my review, I have had it mentioned by my manager, including in performance reviews, I have thankfully had leadership emphasise to everyone on the team how much it matters, and I've had great retrospectives on how we can improve the quality and speed of review that resulted in further meaningful improvements.

Changing culture on this is hard, so maybe the answer is just to find a better culture elsewhere, but I can assure you that it does exist.
