Rewind: Ensuring Fair Pay in the Profession
Wed Jan 28 2026
Dominic Piscopo's journey in accounting started at a Big Four firm in Canada, where he discovered his firm was paying its employees well below the average in his area. We look back at his conversation with John Randolph on CPA Life Rewind Episode 87 about how that experience, among others, led to him launching Big 4 Transparency, a platform which tracks salary data in the profession. Dom talks about Big 4 Transparency's transformation from community project to full-time venture as a result of his feeling a "social responsibility" to supply this information for free to the community while taking on firm clients who want to understand where their offerings stand in the marketplace. Underscoring the strategic use of timely data to attract and retain talent, Dom talks about how transparent compensation practices can promote employee satisfaction and prevent wage stagnation, benefiting firms of all sizes.
