5 YOE, earning under 200K. Feeling a bit directionless
I'm 5 years into software development as a Full-stack Java (Spring Boot) + Angular. Currently working at a product based company. Feeling a bit clueless at the moment, with the inflation and the industry saturation.
I recently started applying elsewhere and also started prepping for interviews a bit. But honestly I don't even know if I'm aiming for the right thing anymore. Freelance work? Local switch? Foreign remote? A side hustle?
For those who've been at this stage and broken through - what actually worked?
