The main difference is private sector has healthy attrition @15% -30% depending on industry. This allows people who know how to play politics to survive and narrow the odds as the people who lost usually resign.

Civil service and stat board attrition is at low single digits resulting in traffic jam. For eg, in pte sector someone get stuck at DD will leave after 6-8 years when he see no chance of going up, but in government the bugger will just hang on there for 20 years until retirement so the people below no chance to go up.
