In this scenario, all three jobs have a base pay of 900, indicating that they are part of the same pay grade. "Range tightness" refers to the narrowness or flexibility of a pay range, and "pay range" and "pay structure" refer to the overall system or framework of pay within an organization, which may include multiple pay grades.
