ALEXANDRIA, Va. – Sept. 23, 2026 – Kearney & Company, a premier audit, consulting, and technology firm focused on government, was named one of 2026’s Best Accounting Firms to Work For by Accounting Today. The publication partnered with Best Companies Group to identify firms that have excelled in creating quality workplaces for team members. This year, Kearney ranked fifth in the large firm category.
“Being honored consistently as one of the best places to work demonstrates the exceptional culture our team members continue to build at Kearney,” said the firm’s Chief Executive Officer, Brian Kearney. “Their commitment to collaboration, excellence, and supporting one another is central to our continued success and the high-quality service we provide to our clients.”
The rankings are determined through a two-part process. First, Best Companies Group evaluates each participating firm’s workplace policies, practices, philosophy, systems, and demographics. The second part consists of a team member survey to measure the employee experience. The combined scores determine the top firms and final rankings.
“The firms on this list represent the best workplaces in the accounting profession,” said Accounting Today Editor-in-Chief Daniel Hood. “They are outstanding places to build a career.”
Accounting Today published the ranked list and an in-depth report of 2026’s Best Accounting Firms to Work For on the publication’s website.
