Whenever choosing a company, it is important to look for their pension plans for your financial security after retirement. Many companies in America have stopped offering pension plans and now offer plans like 401(k).
But the pension plan is far more generous than any other plans as it pays employees a guaranteed amount based on their salary and years of service.
