was having a discussion with a work collegue at lunchtime, pension came up for a brief second
the company we work for transitioned from defined contribution to a defined benefit scheme ~3.5 yrs ago, he was saying that this works out much better for a company as if you leave they have to pay you out less than they would if you had a defined contribution pension
he was also saying it works out better for you if you stay until the bitter end (>30yrs in both our cases)
very curious on this one?
thanks,
