Remember, healthcare.gov has zero employer contributions. For the same coverage you can get through your employer, expect to see premiums nearly twice what you would pay through an employer sponsored plan.
I ran the numbers last year with Silver vs healthcare.gov and the numbers were heavily in favor of Silver. Couldn't justify the nearly doubled premium amount for almost the same coverage.
