I have heard that if you work in the D.A.'s office in the Borough of Brooklyn that the only retirement benefits you have are the deferred comp that you pay into. Is this true? I find it hard to believe that they don't pay into the public employees retirement system but anything is possible. I currently work for a city and was thinking of looking up that way but if there aren't similar benefits.... Thanks for any answers you can give. Aritolla, Do you know this from personal experience? Does the employee pay part or does the City pick up the entire tab?
