You wouldn't expect much less from a wellness brand, eh?!

Purpose Jobs, the Midwest’s largest startup and tech community, names Pocketnest a "Best Place to Work" for its killer work-life balance, employee wellness offerings, and standout company culture.


After all, if anyone should know the importance of employee wellness, it's us!




What is employee wellness


What used to be "extra" is now tablestakes in fighting The Great Resignation as employees are flocking to companies that offer better culture, work-life balance, and general employee wellness offerings. “Wellness” means something much more expansive than years past.


The term “employee benefits” is slowly being replaced by “employee wellness,” to communicate to employees that their employers care about their well-being. Companies with boast-worthy employee wellness offerings feature packages like retirement savings plans (and company matches!), subsidized life insurance, health insurance, gym memberships, financial wellness perks, and more. The big picture? Caring for the employee’s whole person.



What's missing from employee benefits


Employee wellness programs almost always include some sort of financial component, typically a retirement savings plan like a 401K or a 403B. But why not more? If finances make up one-fifth of the employee’s whole self, supporting the employee must include more financial guidance.


We believe employee financial wellness drives overall employee wellness.

That’s exactly why we developed our employee financial wellness platform—made just for employers like you. We license our software to employee wellness programs to help employers boost recruitment, productivity, and retention.


Built on behavioral science and psychology, Pocketnest coaches users through 10 themes of financial wellness. Its gamified, almost-addictive approach draws your employees into the app to keep their financial plan up to date—in three minutes a week. Simply put, Pocketnest addresses true comprehensive financial planning—all the topics that keep us up at night beyond just budgets and investments.
