No. This is what the company itself published in its job postings, normalised to a yearly USD range. Real offers vary by level, location and equity, and many postings omit pay entirely.
These 110 rows are part of one CSV covering every company we read: the full dataset (salary-ranges-full.csv) under CC BY 4.0. Or pull it into Python:

import salaryranges
