POed at dh's work

I'm so sick of the company he works for. It's a farm store chain that also has lumber and works with contractors. Dh worked at one of the stores since 2006, and ran the lumber department. Almost 2 years ago, they moved him to the corporate offices. Great. He was given 3 lumber department 's deliveries to manage from a central location. They gave his salary a hike, but took away comp time earning. Ok. Fine. Losing so much vacation sucked, but we're dealing with it ok.
Recently, he has been having to work 12+hour days to get everything done.
Someone mentioned to him that he was on a one man short list to run another company owned by the company that he works for. It would have been really awesome for us. But, the owners decided against it because no one else can do what he's currently doing, and they don't trust anyone else in the company to be able to. No joke, they were calling for help ALL DAY that I was in labor at the hospital, and he was still working when he could from our personal laptop.
Now, they are adding two more stores to him. No raise, no extra perks, just more work. I'm so mad! He also found out that the idiot who replaced him, at the store he was at, makes $10,000 more than dh does currently, yet this guy is STILL calling dh every day to ask how to do the job, and it's been almost 2 years! It's frustrating and demeaning to dh. It really has me hot.
I hate that he feels so used and worthless, but I also really hate that he's missing out on so much time with his newborn!

Re: POed at dh's work
He is still at work , working beyond his regular working hours.
Hope things get better; I am happy that my mom is here to help and support me.
It's a weird situation. He's worked up the ladder very quickly, so he has gotten several decent raises over the years, but, they get less and less reflective of the work he's doing.
