Until his retirement in 2015 he also served as senior scientist at the Gallup Organization.

He also co-edited with Jacques A. Hagenaars a highly cited volume Applied Latent Class Analysis (Cambridge University Press, 2002, ISBN 9780511065941).
Since 2003, McCutcheon served in senior roles in exit-poll research at Edison Research, which supplied exit-poll data for the National Election Pool, a collaboration of networks including ABC, Associated Press, CBS, CNN, Fox News, and NBC.
