In early November we reported a rumour that Steve McCullough, officially ‘Managing Director, Americas at RMG Networks’ would soon be heading out the door to join Aspect Digital [1].
Steve is one of the long term Symon Communications, Inc. employees who managed to stay on post-merger and climb his way up the corporate ladder. Steve was Symon Communications, Inc, Vice President, International General Manager back in January 2011 and is / was one of the good guys.
Post merger he held positions as Senior Vice President, North American Sales (February 2011 – June 2013), Executive Vice President, Global and Major Accounts (June 2013 – October 2013) and most recently Managing Director, North America (October 2013 – Present).
We can confirm that Steve left of his own accord and is now pretty much focussing on his new gig at Aspect Digital. RMG Networks will miss him for sure.

Here’s another “rumour” – your readership numbers are going down because you’re no longer reporting news, you’re just making it up as you go along. Tell us about the news it after it happens – and stop making the news around your tabloid insiders.

Well said Armen!

If Steve’s leaving, GOOD FOR STEVE!!! (YAY!!! Wooohoooo!!!) (Imagine a bunch of party smilies here…)
As a former employee of this sinking (i.e., “Titanic”) RMG Networks ship, I can say that although Steve and I never worked directly together, he was very aware and respectful of my position at the company and addressed me by my NAME. (Something not common with the rest of the good ol’ boys at the company.)
More power to you Steve! Best of luck in your new position!

Quite the contrary, Armen. His readership is going up b/c his sources are often spot-on. Take THIS incident for example.
It was announced today that Steve has left RMG.
Keep up the good work, Adrian.
All the best to Steve. A great man who deserved better.

It’s okay to be humble, Steve Schwartz. RMG is notorious for not communicating to its employees of what is REALLY GOING ON with the company. If it weren’t for the dailydooh.com, nobody would know THE TRUTH!
(DING! Okay I’ll be back…my popcorn’s ready!)

How very, very true. And Steve Schwartz is definitely one of the “good guys” at that place.

There are lot of good people still there. The Titanic analogy isn’t far off.

The captain went down with The Titanic when it sank. RMG’s captain took a golden, heated rescue boat to safety–leaving the others to perish.
