One thing to consider is that the private company you are working for now could go bankrupt, be sold, or do away with their pension plan, and you might lose your pension. With the City, you might be making less money, but it is unlikely that you would lose your pension. I'm not necessarily advocating for the City job, just pointing out some benefits to it.

That's true Gayle. Something else to think about!
