If your small company needs H1bs to survive, it doesn’t sound like a very sound business in the first place.
It is not small companies per se, But a mechanical company can never pay equal to FANG.They do require niche engineering skills.

What about academics and non-profits?

Reserve an allotment for smaller companies using the existing lottery system.
