Bachelor in Accounting Degree
A Bachelor's in Accounting degree paves the way for individuals who wish to become accounting professionals. Individuals with a bachelor's have gone on to work for large, small, private, and public companies. Accountants with this degree can step into positions such as junior accountant, or continue to graduate school where they can earn a MBA in accounting or another related field.
Associate in Accounting Degree
An Associate's in accounting is a valuable tool to help professionals get their foot in the door of an accounting career. Professionals with this degree are able to start out in an entry level position within an accounting firm, or a slightly more advanced position in a smaller company.
An Associate's degree can also be used as a ticket into a more advanced bachelor's degree program in accounting or other business related field. Students usually take about two years to earn an Associate's degree.

If you're interested in working for a Big-4 accounting firm, then I believe a Bachelors would be necessary to advance to an entry-level.

bachelor's is 4 years while associate's is only two years. Not to mention the huge gap in pay between the two.
