How big of a deal is it to jump firms before getting a promotion? Up for promo in a few months but got an SC offer that better aligns with the type of work I want to be doing.

Up for promo means, promo is not guaranteed. If the SC offer is equivalent to a promotion, then by all means go for it.

Analyst to SC? Do it

Are you currently a SC ? I've been told by many that firms usually wait at least 1 year before they promote you from SC to Manager when you are coming in as experienced hire.

I'm with EY1 then. If the move comes with a promotion, and you will be aligned with something that interests you more, then might as well move.
