Is it true that base salary at Amazon for all level is max'd out at $160K?

Title says it all.

No

Can definitely go higher than that.

Yep, to 185 for the bay.

Microsoft Squigleee Jun 20, 2018

Yes. It is except for AWS, Lab126 and certain metro locations like LA, NJ/NY

Amazon GoAlexa Jun 20, 2018

Yes. It’s true. Only for SF Bay Area and NYC, it’s $185k

Amazon QIQD31 Jun 20, 2018

Yes that's true. Although TC for Directors etc can go up to 300k to 400K in form of bonus and stocks

Amazon ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ Jun 20, 2018

You don’t have to be director level to get into that range...

Lol. Q1qd31 got lowballed by order of magnitude.

Yes. 2year prorated sign on bonuses and stock help make up the gap, but some things like paternity leave and 401k matching are tied to base salary in annoying ways.
