THE PACESETTER: The L.A. office of Pricewa-terhouseCoopers LLP tops the list of the larg-est accounting firms operating in Los Angeles County. The New York headquartered firm reported 1,348 account-ing professionals in its local office. That’s 28 more accounting profes-sionals from a year ago.“Since 2010, our head count has grown by 36 percent,” said Brian Cullinan, market manag-ing partner. “Turnover has dropped by a third compared with three years ago.”The firm will be moving to new offices at 601 S. Figueroa St., where it signed a 15-year lease, in May. The downtown L.A. space will have nontraditional features such as collaborative work spaces, Internet cafes, and wired offices outfitted with flat-panel televisions. There will even be standing desks, some equipped with treadmills.“The average age of our workers is about 27 years old. We are keeping up with how younger people work,” said Cullinan.Overall, the local office employs 1,518 account-ing, consulting and other professionals.
