Source: Each firm via survey as of Q1-Q2 2024. Notes: N/A=not available. Unable to confirm data by press time for Worcester's Jaffe, Yaffe & Feingold PC or Framingham's Sanchez and Santiago CPAs.
CORRECTION: Chicago-based BDO USA LLC closed its Gardner office, which had been open since 1924. BDO reported 320 and 300 local staff members on WBJ's 2023 and 2022 surveys respectively.
Upon closure of the Gardner office, it came to light that BDO had been reporting statewide employee counts as the local Central Mass. figure; the firm's Boston location is now the sole office statewide.
(1) S&G LLP was acquired by New York-based Citrin Cooperman Advisors in July; all local staff is
expected to remain in the Worcester office.
(2) Year S&G LLP founded
(3) Paresky Flitt & Co. LLP was acquired by Connecticut-based UHY in January.
(4) Provided statewide staff counts as the local Central Mass. figures on WBJ's 2023 survey, but
corrected this oversight in 2024; Worcester is CLA's only office in Central Mass.
(5) Data from WBJ's 2023 survey
(6) Additional leadership includes partners Sandy Brown and Maureen Sullivan.
