All Nissan employees (employees of the company itself or affiliates) can provide the Vehicle Purchase Plan benefit to family or friends (and of course themselves).
You can find details of the program here:
Nissan Vehicle Purchase Program
You would be able to participate under the “C Plan”.
All employees are encouraged to use the program for themselves and family and friends; however as I said above, we are generally restricted to just a few per year (including any vehicles we might want to buy for ourselves)…that restriction has been lifted for this quarter.
Typically, we don’t get anything “out of it” except the chance to promote the products of the company we work for. For this quarter, however, for any VPP claim number we obtain that ultimately results in a sale, our name is put in a raffle and the winner will receive the free use of any Nissan (sans GT-R unfortunately) or Infinity vehicle of their choice for year.
It’s a nice prize but given the thousands of employees who will be participating, I’m not overly optimistic about winning - if I happen to be lucky enough, I’ll let you all know!
