Government or Private

As far as I know, if it is Government Agency, even they pays lower than private companies, there are other allowances that is being given; like allowance if we are being hospitalized, and also, the most important one: pension fund. Some of private companies aren't giving those allowances, while some others are giving it, but with different scheme. It depends on the company, that's why you should make sure about it first before joining any private company..

One of the biggest differences between Government employment and private sector employment is in the private sector you are paid what you are worth. You do a good job you get good pay but if you do an outstanding job you are rewarded with a nice raise and other benefits. My wife was a teacher for over 20 years. She put in extra time working with children after school and she got the same pay as the teacher who showed up at 8:00am and left at 3:30pm. She wrote several grants totalling close to $250,000 and did not even receive a letter of commendation from the school board. Several of her friends who worked in the private sector worked extra and did extra things for the company and guess what - they received very nice bonuses at the end of the year. they were also promoted to positions with more responsibility and better pay and better performance bonuses. My wife received the same raise as every other teacher.
