For what it may or may not be worth, I used to work for the city and left because I felt I didn't get paid enough, and a similar position in the private sector paid more + similar benefits.
The biggest difference is definitely lifestyle though. With the city I worked 38 hours a week. Current job I work between 60 to 84 and spend 80% of my time away from home. Both jobs paid hourly
