    Well, among other things I would say at least one of the belts is likely loose or a drive component is loose (pulley, set-screw, etc.)
    That is what is making it si uneven on the layers.

    The Z offset is probably also a bit off, but would need to see just a first-layer print to judge that.

    Z offset is too low to start. Print the calibration ring and see what happens.

    Definitely looks like a loose pulley judging by the back and forth movement.

    Potentially heat related issues as well. Is your part fan running?
