I'm actually quite satisfied with my current position. But I certainly intend to to advance my career in the long run. From a rather technical point of view, I'd like to do more backend related work than now, maybe even leave frontend development completely behind. I'm also interested in a role which has on a long-term basis a more strategic nature than my current one. But at least in my company, I don't see that happening. The trade-off between influence on the one hand and bureaucracy, as well as corporate politics is not attractive, although I'm not sure if there are many companies which are not in one way or the other troubled with those aspects.
I also had a long chat recently with two people who went freelance and are quite successful with that. It is definitely a route I would consider for myself, maybe not as the next step, but as the one after that.
