At FAMCO, one of our core family values is simple but powerful: “We believe the strength of our team is our greatest advantage.”
Our people are the foundation of our success, and we’re committed to making FAMCO not just a place to work, but a place where careers and community thrive.
That commitment means more than words. It means listening, learning, and investing in our team so they can do their best work and feel proud to be part of FAMCO.
Listening to Our Team Through GoodWell
One of our most recent initiatives to strengthen our commitment to our employees was an anonymous, confidential survey conducted in partnership with GoodWell. This opportunity allowed us to hear directly from our team about their experiences, ideas, and suggestions for making FAMCO an even better place to work.
This initiative came from our Board of Directors, who actively researched potential survey partners to truly challenge and assess our workplace environment. GoodWell did not approach FAMCO. Rather, the Board sought them out specifically because they believed it was essential to gain an honest, unfiltered view of the employee experience. The Board understands that the company’s success depends on its people, and they wanted to ensure every voice could be heard.
The results were both encouraging and enlightening, sparking meaningful conversations between the Board, our management team, and employees.
Celebrating Our GoodWell Certification
We’re proud to announce that FAMCO is now officially GoodWell Certified!
GoodWell Certification is awarded to companies that conduct at least one survey per year and achieve an average annual score above zero. This recognition is not given lightly and not all companies pass the bar for certification. It’s earned through real, honest input from employees and a demonstrated commitment to making workplaces better.
The 2024 average GoodWell Score metrics were:
Average= 10
Median = 13
Average of Bottom 25%= -16
Average of Top 25%= 10
FAMCO is proud to share their score of 17, which means our employees told GoodWell, in their own words and ratings, that this is a great place to work!
“When you see the GoodWell Certified mark, you know that company isn’t just talking about valuing employees, they’re proving it through 100% confidential, independent, employee-driven feedback” (GoodWell, 2025).
Why This Matters to FAMCO
At FAMCO, we want more than to attract talent, we want to keep it. Our goal is to maintain a high retention rate by creating an environment where our team feels values, safe, and inspired. We believe a workplace should be both productive and fun, where people can grow their skills while building meaningful relationships.
The GoodWell certification is not an endpoint. It’s a benchmark. We will continue to listen, learn, and take action so that FAMCO remains a place where our people feel supported and excited to come to work each day.
Our employees are our greatest advantage, and we intend to keep it that way.
