Yes in large tech outside of FAANG. But that is only half the story. A lot of decision-making often falls on vice presidents, presidents, or heads assigned to subsidiaries or projects. They job hop a lot, more often than every 7 years in my experience.
Phil Harrison is a known FAANG example, but in smaller companies, there are tons of Harrisons. Stephen Elop is a FAANG-adjacent example, having been the CEO of Nokia in its downfall and now job-hopping quite a lot.
As a completely unrelated side-note, I love this quote from Elop's Wikipedia page:
> In his first speech at a Telstra conference in September 2016, Elop cited Nokia as an example of a "great" company that can self-assess and "transform" when necessary, referencing its success as a networks equipment supplier. He said that Telstra was also needing a necessary transformation to become more of a technology company. Elop was dismissed from Telstra as part of its restructuring on 31 July 2018.
