It's not just responsibility, it;s also about skill and knowledge related to your job.

These words are not important in Government Jobs..... I see many government officers are not eligible for job. Still they continue serving for that post.......

Yes job security is there. For an easygoing and unambitious, govt jobs are ideal

In Govt job age is restricted. In a private job, even 60 year old man also gets a new job. In private you can get job after your retirement from Govt job. They only expect the talented people.

Yes, but what you except a 60 year employee in private sector. Will he give its best to company.. Most of them fails.......

You have a misconception. Most of the successful employees in private organizations are above 60.

These days many people are healthy enough to work even till age of eighty years. I am also nearing 70 years but I work as usual or even better than my earlier years. all you need is not to count your age often. Many government employees also work in private sector after the age of seventy years. However I agree that many are in retirement mood even before sixty and they lose all interest in work. But then they pass time in useless gossip, play cards with similar aged persons and put their family members- mainly women- to inconvenience of preparing tea and snacks for them and their playing card partners.

By age only they are old but still there brain is active. They can give valuable suggestions with their vast knowledge attained in the world. Experience always matters.

Its not only the experience but people over 60 can do field work too and in most cases better than younger ones because they have better facilities to travel. Look at me I do lot of traveling for my work.

In a government job, date of birth decides everything, in a private job it one's merit decides everything.

My Merit that could not be recognized by my employers in a government job in my long tenure, was recognized just in a month by my employers of a Private firm. That's the difference between a face in the crowd and Head and shoulders above the crowd.

A large number of employees suppress their merit for the safety and assured perks provided by government service. I know of many such employees who do not accept better paying jobs because they will have to work hard and be accountable. What I find odd is that such employees accuse the government for not recognising their merit. In private service merit does often get recognised but right connections also play an important part in ones rise up the ladder.

Some people working in govt jobs still wants to live in their city and never accept the transfer and future opportunities.

In fact I refused a job in a government organization with a good pay and perks and settled with a job with low pay in a private firm. Because it has promised me that it would help enhance all my specializations. And it did.

I think it is a good thing that private jobs have opportunities for people over 60yrs..there are no dearth of job when people over 60 are willing to continue their work life...in fact private jobs are so much in number that we only need to get and grab the right opportunity to showcase our skills and use our educational background to the fullest.

Opportunities are aplenty for any age group for those who have the ability to create opportunities where there are none.

Opportunities always knock the door for the people who is ready to work without considering their age. Those people who criticizing the jobs and telling unnecessary reason will not get the job.

It's like blaming the tools for the person's incapability. Many hide themselves under the guise of iincapabilty. And these are the people who want to enjoy the luxuries of life at the same time. Prove your mettle. The world welcomes you with open hands.
It's only inefficient workman blame the tools.

I agree with you. Microsoft leader bill gates said that his friend studied well and get an opportunity to work as an engineer to Microsoft and bill gates even did not qualify in some exams became the leader of Microsoft. We should analyse the cause of failure and think how to overcome from that. Nobody can beat us until we accept the failure.

The recruitment in government esp in its PSU's is done on merit and as per laid down procedures unlike in private companies where flexibility exists. However the problem in government is that its decision making process also has to follow a laid down procedure which makes it suffer vs private sector which is able to respond to changing external scenarios much faster. In competitive environment the government sector suffers. We must not forget the immense contribution of government organisations in heralding progress and growth in almost all sectors of Indian economy. The private sector usually enters after government companies have created the opportunities. Ultimately it is the employee who sees where he is more comfortable. A salaried employee can never be the boss in either private or public sector.

Once a job is secured in a government organization, there comes a grinding halt to the employee's personal abilities. Because of a monotonous work culture. And it goes until retirement. Even if the employee shows promise in his work, it's ignored. This is a trait that repels ambitious people. And they turn towards Private jobs where the employee's mettle and Merit is taken in to consideration. And for promoting such people there is no time restriction in Private organizations. In PSUs there is a time frame for promoting the employee.
There are instances of salaried employee in a private firm becoming a CEO of the organization.

True. Private jobs never expect bribe to finish the work. In govt some people are working with sincerity and doing their jobs without asking bribe and finishing their work at the right time. Another disadvantage of govt job is jobs are allocated based on caste.

It all culminates to one point. For an ambitious person who strives to excel, and who is ready to go that extra inch for his and organisation's development, there is nothing like Private organization.

Drawbacks are in every firm. Most of the software companies in India are private firms. Why pvt only lead in this industry because they day by day improving their product.

A constant improvement of the product and innovative ways to boost the productivity that save a lot of amount to the organization is the trait conspicuously invisible in most of the PSUs, may be with one or two exceptions.
