Except for 2012 when the Purple Rose of Chicago shockingly was named the best accounting firm to work for, a Big 4 firm has been ranked No. 1 in all the other Vault Accounting 50s. And even though Vault’s latest ranking for 2023, released earlier today, includes only 25 firms instead of 50, a Big 4 firm is still the leader.
Which firm has led the most through the years? Obviously the most prestigiousiest one:
- PwC: 10
- Deloitte: 1
- EY: 1
- Grant Thornton: 1
Here’s a handy-dandy list of which firms have topped the Vault Accounting 50/25 each year dating back to 2011:
- 2011: Deloitte
- 2012: Grant Thornton
- 2013: EY
