In Episode 40 of the Big 4 Transparency Podcast, I’m joined by Tim Petrey, CEO of HD Growth Partners, a regional accounting firm that was acquired this year by Ascend, a platform for firms backed by PE. Tim shares his journey with the acquisition, what it’s like working with Ascend, and how the acquisition has changed things for his team. Tim also talks about his views on the accounting industry as a whole, and what drove him to start a payroll practice while running his firm as well. We also talk about Tim’s investment in Big 4 Transparency - he recently came on as an investor and shares the thought process that drove his decision.
