Best Entry-Level Corporate Finance Jobs/Companies

Hi everyone,

I am a rising junior studying finance and international business at a top 50 school. I am interested in corporate finance. I have a good GPA but I know that I don't want to work over 40/50 hours and I am not set on climbing the corporate ladder. Since I don't have a clear picture in mind career-wise, what companies provide solid financial analyst programs? Or, what companies give their entry-level financial analysts great training? I'm hoping to get a good internship next summer to possibly lead to a full-time offer. Thanks for your help!!
