Openly Compensation & Benefits
Openly Employee Perspectives
Openly’s benefits extend beyond traditional healthcare coverage to give employees flexible support for their physical, financial and personal well-being. Paid well-being and volunteer days, full short-term disability coverage, preventative care resources and the Be Well lifestyle spending account allow employees to use benefits in ways that reflect their individual needs and lives outside of work.
“When I first joined Openly, our wellness resources were fairly limited. Since then, we’ve worked to grow that list into something that actually reflects how our team lives and what they need to feel supported. Today, we offer resources like paid well-being and volunteer days, a preventative care campaign, 100 percent short-term disability coverage, and webinars on everything from chair yoga to retirement planning.
While it’s great to see strong engagement across these resources, the favorites tend to be the ones that offer the most flexibility and personal choice. Paid well-being days help employees manage the curveballs life inevitably throws at them, while our preventative care campaign serves as a helpful reminder to stay on top of annual check-ups and proactive health needs.
Our ‘Be Well program,’ an enhanced lifestyle spending account, is probably the most personal. It offers employees a way to fund self-care that is unique to them, like camping, surfing, an art class, meditation app or even elder care or pet sitters. As Openly has grown, it’s been rewarding to see our support for employees grow across so many dimensions as well.”
