I think the biggest motivation is impact -- I want to do something more useful than company or marketing websites. Tools or websites that someone relies on and that I can take some pride in. I find myself not caring about my current job to the point where I feel like I'm taking advantage of them. So I want out but I'm still investigating other options. I don't think I'm built for academic research though.

Travel would be nice but I'd prefer to stick to civilization and not do stuff like long-term scientific expeditions to an Antarctic glacier or something remote like that.

Company size really doesn't matter but I've found it's easier to break into industries by joining a larger company.

Salary isn't a huge deal as long as it's over $80k (with median cost-of-living).

Thanks for taking the time!
