Editors with a COI must disclose the COI, especially if you are being paid per the Terms of Use, in which case, there is a separate (but similar) process for disclosing paid editing.

COI editors are strongly discouraged to edit affected articles directly. Instead, use the template to propose changes to an existing article and Articles for creation for creating a new article.

The bottom line is, COI editing is just not a good idea. COI editing can cause many problems, and there are even legal consequences for hidden advertising mimicking a content format such as a Wikipedia article. If your company tells you to make or edit a Wikipedia article about them, tell them it can't be done.
