You mean you don't give them 2 weeks notice on firing?
If you'll find for course you don't get given notice. If somebody is breaking the rules and being dangerous you don't want them hanging around for another 2 weeks you want them gone now.
If it's a layoff then yeah you get notice
No. You give 2 Months.
The US is at will, nobody gives 2 weeks for termination unless maybe it's a layoff. If a company has grounds to fire you they just fire you. Most will be smart enough to disable accounts before you're even out the door.
Even in locations where you are required to give notice, you can just pay out the notice period.
"Most" is optimistic. I don't have statistical information proving otherwise, but anecdotally I am not so sure. A big company like Disney with their own team of IT and official policies and this still happened is exhibit A.
