“For us at Moss Adams we believe in a two-pronged approach to accounting. First, we strive to create an environment internally where those at Moss Adams feel they can thrive. They then bring this enthusiasm to our clients resulting in a better quality of work and experience for our clients,” says Michael Ricioli, partner in charge at Moss Adams in Santa Rosa. “Next, we take a very industry-specific approach. So, if you’re in a certain business sector, you’ll be working with professionals that understand the nuances of your specific industry. This more client-centric approach again tends to result in a better experience for our clients and our people.”
Ricioli says one of the rewarding aspects of working at Moss Adams is the people and the teams he works with because he enjoys working and collaborating with them.
