Getting a job at Google is a superficial achievement that won’t fix any self esteem issues.

That may be true for a lot of people. But no matter how much you hate a specific company this just isn't true for most people.

For me personally it would be an immense boost to morale. Getting any offer would boost morale but a top tier tech company is the Pinnacle.

That seems a bit silly to call an achievement that pays you money superficial. Also no matter where you are in life, it is feels good to reach goals you aspire to.

Getting a job at a major company gave me the self esteem to realize I could do it myself. It's a boost even if you quit.
