Positive Reviews From Namely Employees

  • What are some of the best things about your team?
    Some of the best things about the team are: 1) The overall willingness to do their job to the best of their ability 2) their love for Namely! 3) The ability to interact w/diff people; it's been an eye-opener for many us during the WFH transition just how important person-to-person interaction is!
  • What do you like best about the leadership team?
    I like that the leadership team is involved and not afraid to communicate expectations with us. I feel like they remain committed to staying "in touch" with what is going on around us on a day-to-day basis and I never question that an effort is being made.
  • What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
    I actually feel Namely has a really positive company culture overall; I've never worked any other place where our CEO will literally grab a case! For the most part people are positive and we have a lot of great perks; however, culture is ever evolving & it will always ebb and flow as days go on.

Constructive Feedback From Namely Employees

  • Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
    co-pay is too high (health), WFH has increased my costs and I would expect the company to help
