I switched from Namecheap to Namesilo and been very happy - same solid price all the time, plus included free guard.
If a disgruntled employee knows your domain name, they can call Namecheap and claim its theirs. I had such trouble at one of my companies - while they didn't get a hold of the domain, upon validating company name, address and domain name, Namecheap opened the ticket for them and kept our domain on hold for 30 days before the situation got resolved. They did not shut it down, but we were unable to access it or change any DNS records. From my understanding, anyone upset at you enough can contact them and claim the domain is theirs and you stole it from them. That experience made me move out to Namesilo for USA domains, and Marcaria for international.
