This in unconceivable in a modern and civilized country as US claims to be. This is truly a sweatshop mentality and the sooner it ends the better for the health of the employees. The discrepancy between the "our goals/our principles/etc" kind of corporate talk and the reality is enormous.

So I left and found somewhere better to work. “for promotions you are pressured to not only work OT, but to NOT record it anywhere.”
