is there or should there be a pay gap between public and private?
or put in another way, if you currently work in public sector, and consider moving to private sector working on a similar role. obviously private sector job will be more demanding, stressful and unstable. how much pay increment do you think is acceptable?
vice versa, moving from private to public, how much pay-cut can you tolerate?
I heard from a friend, who worked in private for 20 years before joined public sector as a director, saying he took 30% pay-cut to serve the country. but on the other hand I know from other friend the pay difference isn't that much actually.
