Experiencing the same thing at the 2 years mark with the same company, my answer was just quitting my position and looking for something new like fintech or another field. Unemployed as we speak, i have the choice of going back or keep looking for the right job offer. I had few offers but nothing new, just startups working on internal product. Now I'm feeling the life pressure of going back or keep aiming for a dream company.
I'm at this point in my career at the moment. I'm at 4.5 years of experience at the moment, and I got laid off twice last year and thankfully found a fully remote job, however the job itself is extremely slow paced compared to my previous jobs I've had, and I probably do like 3 hours of work a day most days, occasionally I'll have a busy day, but I'm trying to find ways to not let myself stagnate. But I'm also thankful in a way to have a high paying job that's remote and has good work/life balance, as I'm trying to enjoy other things outside of work now. We have a move coming up in June (going from Tennessee to Seattle) and I think that will help with some of the "stuck" feeling, but I'm also trying to prep for potentially finding a job out there at some point, but thankfully I can keep this remote job for my move.
PoE 2 is out, and I'm loving it. De-center work from your life. Focus on friends, family, hobbies, etc.

Never leave your job, before you have a new signed contract in hand.
@aeggeska1 true
I look forward to the day to have such a problem. I’m still trying to break into the industry with my CSE degree after 1.5 years
what tech stack are you looking to work in?

totally get what you're saying. honestly that sounds like a pretty chill setup with that remote job. I hope the move goes well
