Again, the reason why you are asked to choose a Fortune 500 company is that you are much more likely to find publicly available information for these very large companies insofar as it concerns the parameters of this assignment. Still, some big companies are a bit shy about publishing data related to the way they do things - examples commonly include salary ranges and human resources policies and procedures. That said, do the best you can with your research.
