What are the benefits of working for New York State government?

I worked in private sector for the past 15 years and has gradually built up good work experience history with comparable salary. Recently I received availability for employment in a position in New York State Government but the beginning salary is almost half of what I can make in private sector. Please tell me what are the benefits of working for State Government. What kind of perks could I expect? Private sector nowadays offers better salary, but with long working hours, big contribution in medical insurance, no 401K or any pension plan, limited holiday and sick days, etc.. Can the gov't job perks subsidize private company better salary??

1. There are a number of positive aspects in a government job. Job security weighs foremost as it is not a job at will ! Working hours are fixed !. it is a tension free job !! Over and above all, you work for the COUNTRY in a Government job, whereas you toil to make a few individuals more rich by working in private sector !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
