Our people are behind the strength of our success, and we invest and support you in: Life … with rewards, benefits and the flexibility to enhance your health and well-being Career … with opportunities to learn, develop new skills and grow your contribution Connection … with an inclusive team and commitment to our own and broader communities It's all here for you... let's Create Your Possible At Sherwin-Williams, part of our mission is to help our employees and their families live healthier, save smarter and feel better.

A general description of benefits offered can be found at http://www.myswbenefits.com/. Click on “Candidates” to view benefit offerings that you may be eligible for if you are hired as a Sherwin-Williams employee.
But note we included "About Us" text which is actually from the posting. That's okay as it's substantive. However we might want to keep only benefits part. The "About Us" paragraph is not benefits but company description. Could be considered part of "About the role"? But we already have About the role. Might be redundant. However the instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep that company description somewhere. It could be placed under a section like "About Sherwin-Williams" but we only have allowed headings list: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. "About Sherwin-Williams" is not in list, but we could put it under About the role? The About the role currently is internship description. Could we extend About the role to include company description? That would be mixing. Better to keep About the role as internship description and add a separate section maybe "About Sherwin-Williams" but not allowed headings. The instruction says use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It says e.g., meaning those are examples, not exclusive list? It says "Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." Likely they expect only those headings. So we should not add other headings. Then where to put company description? Could incorporate into Benefits? Not appropriate. Could incorporate into About the role as a brief overview of company? Might be okay as it's still substantive. The About the role currently is internship description; we could add a sentence about Sherwin-Williams purpose etc. That would preserve info. Let's do that: extend About the role paragraph to include company purpose description.
Thus About the role: combine internship description and company purpose/benefits? Actually benefits separate. We'll put company purpose in About the role.
Let's rewrite About the role:
