Imagine you can cut your commute time to work in half, increase your productivity at home and in your job, all with a car that is almost free to lease. This now is reality for employees at Evernote in Redwood City, Calif.
Evernote is a company focused on building apps that help people remember things; it is also a company that is intent on retaining the best and brightest employees.
People in California who drive electric vehicles, like the Nissan LEAF, qualify to drive in the HOV lane even when only one person is in the car. That can translate into a significantly faster commute. That is why Evernote CEO Phil Libin says he offered each of his employees a monthly $250 allowance to lease or buy any vehicle that qualifies them to get a California carpool lane sticker. If they get the Nissan LEAF their allowance completely covers the cost of the lease. Evernote negotiated a special deal with Nissan.
