Without taking too much to research further, the yearly StackOverflow survey can give you some interesting insights into the topic.
Having spent almost 3 years (the anniversary is in just 3 days!) in the same company for now, I can say that there are many different factors that can make you want to stay (or leave):
in the beginning, I was super happy about my salary and I was learning A LOT
then, despite some good offers from the financial perspective, I decided to stay, because I was afraid of working with old, dirty, legacy code
as my fear of legacy stuff went away, I was kept by the great people that I had around me, who inspired me both professionally and personally
after moving to Spain some months ago, which physically split me from my old team, I think the last thing that holds me here (for now) is the interesting stuff that I got to work on recently (recommendation systems)
Student in web development, interested in learning, not only in computer science, but also in physic, chemistry, mathematics, history or litterature.
I also love boardgames and video games.
