VMware Bulgaria’s role on a global scale
Major milestones of the site’s development are the creation of a Professional Services Center of Excellence and an Innovation lab focused on projects in the fields of Open source, Internet of things and Machine learning.
Pat Gelsinger, CEO of VMware, acknowledged the instrumental role of the Bulgarian operations in the global VMware strategy during his visit in Bulgaria:
“Our operations in Bulgaria are a vital part of our ability to develop software and services that allow our customers to move faster, embrace new business models, and compete more effectively. The past decade has shown VMware Bulgaria has been on the edge of delivering innovative technology and is helping our customers through the digital transformation of their businesses. We are committed to a continuous investment in the region. I’m truly excited about what this team will achieve in the future.”

EPIC2 Culture in Action
There are numerous cases to illustrate how the innovative culture at VMware empowers people to achieve more. The Sofia site has seen many talented individuals who had a vision, took the initiative to pursue a new venture internally, brought good results and now, with the support of the leadership, are operating global teams that are bringing value to VMware customers worldwide.
Another aspect that is worth mentioning is the desire of our employees to give back to the communities that they live and work in and the care they show for the environment. Through the support of the VMware Foundation, employees join forces to making change happen.
A recent outstanding example of VMware’s great culture in action is the Carpool Sharing project. A small team of engineers saw the opportunity to solve in a single move several key issues for the company while bringing extraordinary benefits to the environment. By initiating an internal car-sharing service with a fleet of 10 electric automobiles, they managed to overcome the problem with limited access to parking spaces and improved cross-team collaboration and limiting the carbon footprint of the organization.
VMware Bulgaria as an outstanding employer
The continuous commitment to employees brought VMware recognition as best in class employer in Bulgaria by entities such as Forbes, Computerworld, and The Bulgarian Association of Information Technologies (BAIT). Another proof of the outstanding people-orientation of leadership is the fact that VMware’s employees voted the company as Best Employer in Bulgaria in AON’s annual survey last year.
