I'd compare it to an abusive relationship. Jesse is useful to Walt in several ways. Not just as an asset but as someone he has complete dominance and control over. Jesse makes Walt feel powerful. He doesn't want him to succeed too much or the dynamic is gone. He likes having Jesse around but his motivation for it is not healthy for either Walt or Jesse.

At the end I think he does attempt t atone for what he's done though yeah. But for Jesse that's far too late.
