I believe that there is a bias in favour of large vendors.
It's not that the nomcom picks people from large vendors, but rather
than it only gets candidates with support, and large vendors find it
much easier to support people.
AS A RESULT, we have 30+ years of the promotion and retention (not getting
laid off..) of people from those large vendors as well.
