Might be considered boilerplate; but it's not EEO. It's a note about the description. Might be okay to keep as a p under Benefits? But it's not a benefit; maybe we should drop it as it's not substantive benefit. The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. This note is not exactly those but could be considered boilerplate. Safer to drop it. Also mention: "You may also be eligible to participate in a discretionary annual incentive program, subject to the rules governing the program, whereby an award, if any, depends on various factors, including, without limitation, individual and organizational performance." That's a benefit (incentive program). So include. Pay: "$70,000.00 - $138,000.00". Also note about wage range etc. We should preserve the range and maybe the note about range not adjusted for geographic differential etc. That's substantive? It's about compensation details. We can include as part of Pay section: a p with the range and maybe the note. But we must avoid placeholder like "not specified". The note is not placeholder; it's info. We'll include. Now we need to output only HTML fragment, no html/body tags, no markdown fences. Structure:
