A former employee of Disney Streaming Services fired earlier this year is suing the company, alleging that he was the target of discrimination and harassment over his new parental status — an…

According to van Soeren’s lawsuit, filed Nov. 2 in federal district court in New York City, Disney terminated him without cause and did not provide severance pay. The former employee is seeking unspecific monetary damages against Disney Streaming Services, including damages for emotional distress and other punitive damages.Disney in 2017 acquired majority control of Major League Baseball’s, paying a total of $2.

Around June 2018, according to the lawsuit, “numerous” company personnel “discussed and referenced matters that Plaintiff had only discussed at home with his spouse, and/or viewed through his Google Chrome internet browser,” leading van Soeren to conclude that Disney employees had hacked into his home PC.

In addition to the alleged spying, McConnell and other DSS employees “continued to harass, taunt and intimidate Plaintiff throughout his spouse’s pregnancy and the birth of his child.” McConnell also allegedly verbally berated van Soeren, with comments that included saying “fuck you, Steve,” calling him the “tallest midget” and saying that “everything he said was stupid,” per the lawsuit.

Van Soeren said he reported the alleged discriminatory actions with Disney’s HR department, but the company did not take any actions against the employees he alleged were subjecting him to harassment and discrimination. According to the lawsuit, McConnell illegally threatened to fire van Soeren after he filed the HR complaint.
