It looms above this teeming city like a Las Vegas hotel. Its pyramid shape is distinctive and impressive in this land of older, traditional structures. But this pyramid, while noteworthy, is actually a very small part of the headquarters of India's hottest company, as NBC11's Scott Budman learned on a recent visit.

Technologies has such an enormous campus in Bangalore, the Silicon Valley of India, that it took us almost all day to see the entire property.

It's a software powerhouse, with a flair for architecture, evident in a building modeled after Australia's famed opera house.

There are gardens, pools, a veritable oasis, all enjoyed by Infosys employees who come here from all over the world.

The jobs are better paying. They require an educated workforce.

In short, they are the jobs of the future.

And the future looks bright for Infosys, which is growing by the day.

In fact, a couple of hours away in the city of Mysore, Infosys has an even larger campus.

This location boasts buildings based on the Parthenon in Greece, origami designs and a geodesic dome.

In any language, you can call it an incredible place to work.

And Infosys doesn't just have a big campus, it has a big stock market value, not just among the biggest in India, but among the biggest in the world.

To put that in perspective for you, Infosys is more valuable than video game developer Electronic Arts, more than grocery chain Safeway, more than tech heavyweight Advanced Micro Devices, and triple the value of Juniper Networks.

And here's something you probably wouldn't expect to see - a training class.

Yes it's in India, but that's not what makes it different. Its purpose is not to train call center workers.

No, believe it or not, the class is full of American engineers, all of them recently hired by Infosys.

Adam Anderson is one of those engineers. He could work anywhere but he's training in India and soon he'll start working in Fremont, at Infosys U.S.A.

"Of all places, to go to India, it was a definite shock,"Anderson said. "I don't think a lot of people are fully aware of the technology going on in India, and the kind of economic growth because of the tech boom."

They're America's best and brightest, leaving home to learn the lessons of India -- even if their friends think they're crazy.

"They thought it was some humanitarian mission, or religious thing," said Sarah Taliaferro, wearing traditional Indian garb.

"Coming to India was a definite plus. ... I've had a great time learning about India and Indian culture."

Thanks to companies such as Infosys, India has come a long way from the days of inexpensive labor.

And America isn't so much losing jobs as it's losing engineers.

They're coming to India, to a big campus that's making the world a smaller place.

Who are, by the way, going willingly
