I heard a manager at Google admit that he gave the shittiest work to state-school grads, not because they were less capable (they weren't, and he admitted as much) but because the Ivy Validation (as in Google being the Ivy League of your 20s) meant a lot more to them than it did to people coming from Harvard or Stanford. I don't intend for this to reflect on Google (he was a level 7 or 8, not a person of significance) as I'm sure that this dynamic exists, to the same degree, at all the hot tech companies.
