Both Private and Government jobs have their own pros and cons; it depends on you to make the choice. The obvious argument is that private jobs pay more and government jobs are more secure. However, this is not all. Let\u2019s look at this comparison with some in-depth analysis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Government jobs are more competitive<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

While many people might wish to have a government job, they might not be able to attain it due to limited vacancies and tough competition. You need to invest adequate time on exam preparation for selection exams and fulfil other criteria to get one. Private companies relatively have more jobs and there are more chances of people getting recruited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Job security <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This is one of the major factors that work as the decision maker. In a private sector, due to market situation and company\u2019s growth, the later might choose to downsize the team. Recent years and during recession, private companies fire a lot of employees to cut down their costs. You cannot ensure that your job will be there after five years. But government jobs are relatively more stable. People are fired only if there is major performance issue or one is involved with some activities that is completely unacceptable. People thus feel more secure and can plan their future better with a government job.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Better<\/strong> retirement policy<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Government jobs ensure that an employee\u2019s future is secured even after retirement as opposed to a private sector job. With a private company, an employee needs to plan and take care of his or her future after retirement. The new pension scheme ensures that an employee\u2019s lifestyle & standard is maintained after retirement. Also, various government sector jobs in banking and railways continue to provide benefits like travel, stay or medical benefits to employees even after their retirement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Relocation doesn\u2019t mean change of jobs<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Most government jobs especially bank jobs have good re-location policies for employees. An employee can relocate to a new place while working with the same bank unlike private companies, where this is not possible. This flexibility is helpful for people looking to relocate to place where their parents are or relocation after marriage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
