Who has the rundown on these F500 CF Programs?

Can anyone provide specifics on the following F500 finance/rotational/leadership programs (culture, compensation, rotational departments, internal options after completion, etc.)?

Verizon - Finance Leadership Development Program Johnson & Johnson - Finance Leadership Development Program Lockheed Martin - Leadership Development Program

No info on the programs, but here is something to think about.

Industry's Median Return on Equity from 1997-2007 Telecommunications (Verizon) = 5.8% Aerospace & Defense (Lockheed Martin) = 13.9% Pharmaceuticals (Johnson & Johnson) = 21.0%

Personally, I think working for Lockheed Martin would be extremely interesting.

Given that defense is the only area where Obama is actually trying to reign in spending, not sure that I would want to be going into that industry right now.

Oh for sure, but from a pure interest standpoint I would have to think Lockheed Martin would be the most interesting. Not to say it wouldn't get tough when they start losing contracts and such though.

 

Well, there's always gonna be defense contractors. It's not like they're all gonna go under, and certainly not the big guys like LMT. And there's certainly going to be new product lines as we go forward, just not as many new ones.
