I got an offer as a Principal IS Architect (Level 6) at Amgen and my comp is as follows: 180k base, 15% Target Bonus, 25k Sign-on, 25k New-hire RSU (vests 4 years), 20k Annual target RSU (SF based salary).
1st-year comp: ~ 276k
2nd, 3rd, 4th years: ~251k

This is a remote role. I want to know if I am being lo-balled as I expected the 2nd year onwards comp to be at 260k+.

Looks like the only reason your first year comp is as high as it is is thanks to sign-on and new-hire bonuses. Not sure why you'd expect 260+ from a company offering 180k base the first year. I'm not familiar with your industry, though, so my perspective may be limited here.

So I accepted an offer back in mid March but I didn’t negotiate it up and now I’m regretting it, because apparently you’re supposed to. I got a much higher salary than expected and a sign on bonus, and it’s been a while since I accepted the offer, and the start date is later this year…. Is it too late to ask for a bit more though? If not, how do I go about it?
