                Thank you for making VMware one of the Fortune 100 Best Companies
                to Work For!
                Fortune announced that for the third time, VMware has earned a place on its U.S. “100 Best
                Companies to Work For” list. We earned the #42 spot this year, cementing our place as a
                company that stands apart from our peers for creating a trust-based culture where employ-
                ees thrive. Competition is becoming more fierce for these rankings, and our score this year
                is a tremendous testament to our people, our culture and our values. In fact, 92% of our
                people surveyed said that VMware is a great place to work, a higher percentage than in
     previous years and higher than others on this list. We are also happy to share that VMware was recog-
     nized as #9 out of companies located in the San Francisco Bay Area and #9 out of information technol-
     ogy companies on the list.
     All Electric Cab Service

     VMware India recently partnered with India's first all-electric cab service
     – Lithium Cabs to provide employees with green transportation in order
     to  reduce  carbon  footprints  while  transporting  employees  in  the  city  of
     Bangalore. The transition from diesel fleet cars to electric cars for daily
     employee  pick and drop  helps overcome challenges such as fuel cost,
     battery life, safety, battery charging infra and most importantly is an envi-
     ronment friendly cab service. By using eco-friendly cars, VMware India saves 440 tons on carbon diox-
     ide in just one year and reduces pollution on the road. The electric cab service commenced in February
     2017 and VMware India now has over 37 cars transporting employees to and fro with plans to further
     increase the number in future basis requirements.
     Green Power
     VMware India recently sealed a deal with its builders to enable two of its largest buildings based in the
     city of Bangalore – Kalyani Vista and Kalyani Magnum – to receive 85% of
     their  power from renewable energy. Kalyani  Vista  will receive  wind energy
     for  close  to  438,000  sq.  ft.  while  Kalyani  Magnum  will  receive  energy  for
     nearly  206,212  sq.ft.  from  wind  power  turbines  located  in  the  State  of
     Karnataka.
     With the achievement of Kalyani Vista’s LEED Platinum® certification along
     with  the  two  buildings  now  being  powered  by  renewable  energy,  VMware
     India  aims at achieving high  performance in sustainable site  development,
     water  conservation,  energy  efficiency,  materials  selection  and  indoor
     environmental quality.
