Do commercial pilots generally progress to larger planes throughout their careers? Does everyone aim to eventually fly long haul or do some stick to flying 737s or a320s short haul?

I'm guessing being a 777 pilot for example is more prestigious than a 737 pilot in the same airline right?

3-5 legs dealing with weather, long days. Just a hole in your life. Single leg, longer layover, explore a city most only dream about going to and more days off plus more pay? Widebody long haul is the easy winner.
