Dominic Piscopo is the founder of Big 4 Transparency, an online platform launched in 2020 that has increased visibility into salaries, working conditions and career progression within the accounting profession. By collecting anonymous submissions from professionals across public accounting firms, the platform has provided unprecedented insight into compensation, workloads and workplace culture.
Big 4 Transparency has enabled accountants and aspiring professionals to make more informed career decisions by comparing salaries, bonuses and employment trends across firms and locations. The platform has also encouraged greater discussion around pay transparency, employee retention and the changing expectations of the accounting workforce.
While the platform does not focus on accounting standards or auditing, it has influenced the profession by promoting openness and accountability within public practice. Its data has become a valuable resource for employers, recruiters and accounting professionals seeking to understand market trends and benchmark remuneration.
Today, Big 4 Transparency continues to shape conversations around careers in accounting, demonstrating how workforce data and transparency can support a more informed and competitive profession.
