Is this base salary or total compensation?

Why posted ranges and not self-reported salaries?
A posted range is what the employer commits to for a role it has open today. It is fresher than a survey and cannot be inflated by respondents. Each posting counts once, at the midpoint of its range.
Which level pays most?
Senior roles have the highest median here: $174k a year across 13 postings.
