This is an interesting question. According to the 'root phrase' concept, your answer ought to be fine. That's because the root phrase would be 'many teachers choose'. Both parallel elements fit that root phrase correctly:
Many teachers choose to seek employment in the suburbs Many teachers (don't) choose to face low salaries in the city
The official MPrep answer also works. The root phrase there would be 'many teachers choose to'.
However, I'm not sure that I've ever seen anything like your answer on the GMAT, and I'm not sure whether it's 'technically' correct. If it's wrong, it's probably wrong for idiomatic reasons - i.e. 'this just isn't how we use the word 'rather''. If it helps, I haven't seen any GMAT problems where this issue made the difference between right and wrong.
