It was mostly just the status. I think having the title of Senior Software Engineer has a lot of value in itself because it brings better job offers and more credibility if I go off on my own.
Also, people tended to be assigned more interesting projects the higher their level.
I'd enjoy the extra compensation, but that wasn't as strong a factor.
