A Overview of IT sector in India
While in college, I thought coming to this sector will kill my creativity and I will be living a dull and boring life with no idea of what I am doing. Today, if you read answers on quora, most people posting them have something negative to say about the culture in these companies and they are not wrong in expressing their observation considering their dissapointment from the difference they find in their expectations and the reality.
If you are a student who is about to graduate from college, let me first congradulate you on your achievement of coming in the single digit percentage of our country's population. You are very lucky to have such parents get you this much education at a place where we have people dying of hunger and poverty.
Another big achievement you are going to make is that you will now be independent and even in an IT job, you will earn enough to have a comfortable life. Holding a job and earning for yourself is very respectful. How much comes later.
So let me congradulate you on that as well.
These 2 achievements are enough to dismiss the notion that society has speculated. Things in abundance are never valued much, ask those who do not get even that.
As far as screwing your life by going to IT companies in Pune or falling in love is considered, I would just say a single word: “hustle”
