Hi friends, I read all discuss here from bottom to top after that I found that every person is right according to own view. But I would like to say that government job is good no doubt. But now a days you can see that a lot of forms come for one single vaccines. So finding job in government sector is so tuff and much more competition. So I think if you try for a gov job good if you get it very good otherwise continue with pvt job with fresh mind because ultimately goal is earning money.

Good luck.

I can conclude this in simple manner. Pure govt jobs under the central govt or states are life time guaranteed benefits regardless your performance.

PSU companies though undertaken by govt of India it doesn't guarantee salary for life time. Example HMT Hindustan machine tools - People are getting 1992 pay scale because it's not making any profit from 90's.

Salary of a fresh engineer will get 10000.

On the other hand BHEL pays freshers 70000 per month because they are performing excellent.

I have read all the comments from top to bottom.

And somewhere I found that all are right.

As different people have different opinions.

As per my thinking, private jobs are better than public jobs.

The only thing which a government is providing is job security.

But you can make your life secure if you are pursuing a private job.

Yes through back to back investments, you can make your life secure even after your retirement.

And this gives you better opportunities to develop yourself.

Even being a private sector employee I am saying, Public sector is always good than public sector, if you grab a good post. In private sector, There is always pressure, pressure pressure. Its very tough too maintain family balance. Private sector can pay good perks but the public sector gives you life, family, Time, relatives, friends & reputation. If you are creative & ready to take challenges, I will suggest start your own business. Otherwise choose public sector.

I agree that public sector being a guarantor of job security is a myth because if we once selected in a government job and we get permanent we can work peacefully without job tension. But in private sector we need to work too hard, we have no time to spend with our family they will squeeze us till we finish our work. Every talented person in private sector have job tension they have no guarantee for their job. So public sector is 10,000 times better than the private sector.

The Bank Officer Employees should get benefit with the 7th Pay Commission onwards because they would cheated on 5th, 6th pay commission very much. So in 7th Pay Commission their salary on par with central government employees. In Bank also include the Grade Pay for every designation. Comparative Pay Scale should also be introduced. DA and HRA should redefined in a new high. New Perks also be introduce due to match with new way of living. Hope our government will do.

Hi friends.

In my view public sector is better than private sector because there is job security. Not only job security, the competition is also less in public sector. Due to this the people working in public sector have less stress than people working in private sector.

The working hours are fixed in public sector but in private sector they don't have fixed working hours. Stress is more in private sector. Job security is not there in private sector.

Thank you.

Hi thing the private is more important for a developing country. Many countries have that urge to reach the climax of development. This makes me think that the only way is the operation and greater participation of the private sector in our economy. I believe in the promise of HIS EXCELLENCY PRESIDENT PAUL BIYA on an emergency by 2035. But I still think that both private and public sector should work hand in in hand for competition hence bringing about emergency.

In this age of the internet, there are shortcuts to information & knowledge. This is aggravated by rate of obsolescence of technology and skills. This is resulting in new dynamics in the workplace. Companies are looking to replace their older employees with lesser paid younger employees. This makes business sense for the private companies. The question however is, what do the older employees do - where do they go ? Specially if they are in their 40's.

It's interesting to read all the views about Public sector VS Private sector but I feel mixture can be quite good, work for initial time in Private sectors gain the required experience in short time, create cash reserves and as the family responsibilities grow move on to Public sector.

Although in the long run I think one must get self employed or some individual business rather than depending on company / Corporation model for sustainable growth.
