Inside the Tech Dream Job

These tech companies have given life to so many families. Just being an employee at one of these brands gives purpose and dignity to the lives and futures of families all over the world. For Indian families especially, it brings relief, luck, reputation, respect, and social standing.

They are the big payoff of sacrifices made over decades by generations — changing the trajectory of life and destiny itself. The buildings and the experiences within them stand as testaments of success and achievement. They are the best of the best in our times.

But these companies are more than workplaces — they are dreams. Someone else’s dream becomes yours too. You start to wonder: Where in this person’s dream and purpose do I fit? How can I make myself a part of it? Can I get a share of it? Will I ever get to contribute to it?

It’s not just about the big paychecks. It’s about the benchmark of brilliance and excellence. And in this space, we don’t feel privilege hate. We feel deeply privileged — chosen to become part of a tech genius’s dream. That dream doesn’t just belong to us. It becomes our parents’ dream as well.

We build networks of friends and colleagues who bring us closer to that vision. Even the smallest details — a free lunch, a ride to work, an air-conditioned workspace — carry meaning. They give us a sense of arrival.

And so we realize: I have arrived in life.
Living someone else’s dream has become my dream too. And that’s how being an employee gives meaning and purpose to life. You naturally feel fulfilled, competitive, a winner. The self-esteem a tech job brings — especially in America 🇺🇸 — is the dream people work their entire lives to sustain.

But the glow doesn’t stop at you. Jealous and competitive friends and family sneakily watch your life. You suddenly get hundreds of messages and requests on LinkedIn. Everyone is curious to know the formula you applied to unlock the dream — like it’s a hidden treasure. Your worth as a person is amplified.
