The "fellow" title is used to give a person a lot more money and recognition when the person can't or doesn't want to be promoted into management/senior management. Chris Lattner ran Developer Tools at Apple so he didn't need to be Fellow.

Xcode has been this way for a long time before Lattner got there.
