CS Disco Inc., a legal technology company facing shareholder litigation in the wake of a recent management shake-up, said Thursday that its top sales executive is “leaving the organization effective immediately.”
Disco, an Austin, Texas-based provider of electronic discovery software, said in an 8-K filing that Luke McNeal is departing due to “actions inconsistent with the company’s standards.” The company declined to further discuss his exit.
McNeal joined Disco in June 2021 as senior vice president of global sales. He previously worked for Amazon.com Inc. and Facebook parent Meta Platforms Inc. A bounce-back message from McNeal’s Disco email address confirmed that he’s no longer at the company.
McNeal didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment through LinkedIn.
Disco’s 8-K said that Andrea Popovecz, its vice president of field sales, has assumed McNeal’s responsibilities. The company said it intends to “quickly launch a national search for a chief revenue officer.”
In September, Kiwi Camara—Disco’s wunderkind founder and former CEO—resigned amid allegations of sexual impropriety. Disco is also facing shareholder litigation over a decline in its stock price, which as of Thursday afternoon was trading at $7.30—well down from its 2021 post-IPO peak of about $66.
The company and its lawyers from the law firm Cooley filed Jan. 3 a joint stipulation with plaintiffs’ counsel in that putative class action case seeking to move the matter from a federal district court in New York to one in Austin.
