Why the Big Four Matter
The Big Four accounting firms audit more than 80% of all public companies in the United States, placing them among the most trusted names in the field. In addition to offering expert tax services, these companies also set the standard for management and assurance services.
1) Deloitte LLP
Deloitte LLP is the number one firm in the United States. The company began as three separate companies of William Deloitte, Charles Haskins, Elijah Sells and George Touche, and is consistently voted as one of the best employers to work for by Fortune Magazine.
2) PricewaterhouseCoopers
PwC (PricewaterhouseCoopers) is ranked as the number two accounting firm in the United States. The company, founded by Samuel Lowell Price, began in London in 1849 and now offers a plethora of services to clients, including audit and assurance, consulting, IFRS reporting and tax services. Current and potential employees of the company benefit from a wide range of specializations. PwC maintains one of the most diverse working environments in the U.S. and is ranked number five of 50 companies by “Diversity Inc.”

With locations in more than 150 countries and over 700 offices, Ernst & Young offer an array of services such as assurance, taxes, advisement, transactions and many more. This wide range of services also allows the company to cater to a very diverse group of employees.
4) KPMG
KPMG rounds out the list of the Big 4. The company has more than 670 offices located in over 150 countries and was originally established in 1911 when William Barclay Peat & Co. merged with Marwick Mitchell & Co. to form Peat Marwick. KPMG offers three main services: audits, advisory services and taxes. However, these three services can be broken down into many sub-services, making KPMG a full-service firm.
