Seems a bit strange to call the tractor manufacturers non-tech companies. The modern tractor you can see is essentially just a case around what is a rather advanced computer. Hell, the Right to Repair topic that has garnered attention in semi-recent times centres specifically around tractors having become computers. What is tech if not that?
Sure, the typical worker – even when constraining to software engineers – isn't making anywhere near that much (nor are they at any company, not even FAANG), but it is likely that certain key players are.
