They do report the actual wage. Except that's the employer can choose to specify it as a range between a minimum and a maximum. This is optional, it's also possible to specify just one number.

The range can be huge though.

In this example, the wage rate is $106,600, while your site report, I believe, the max rate of $193,400. I was shocked for a moment to see a data scientist making almost $200K!

200k would be reasonable for a senior guy in one of the best data science teams. Actually 106k seems low.

Employers can do that? I guess it makes sense as long as the bottom of the range is higher than the prevailing wage.
