Do all full-time IB offers have the same base?

I'm wondering if most banks give the same base salary in their full-time return offers. I recently got one from an EB with the standard base number of 85k, which I thought was what everyone was offered, but on WSO's salary database I'm seeing lots of data points for 85, 90, and 95 for first year bases
