Started public sector job 5 months ago. Will likely receive a new offer (soon) in private sector for 40% raise. Take it or leave it?

Title describes my situation. I finished my master’s in 2020, started a job in finance with the DoD roughly 5 months ago, and may be receiving an offer with a contractor for a 40% raise. I have student loans and have been planning on doing the 10 year service forgiveness program, but now it’s looking like I can make more in the private sector over 10 years than the amount that would be forgiven.

Things to consider — giving up potential pension (which isn’t as good as when the boomers had it), job security/stability, student loan forgiveness.

Has anyone been in a similar situation? Any advice for making the jump to private sector?
