my experience has been if the company does right by the employees who have left before you, you'll do right by them

At my place, it depends on the working relationship you have with the employee.

I've seen instances where they've told the employee who should have been let go immediately that he had 6 months to find another job because he was a good employee who was just in a bad situation. His lack of employment was more on the company than him.

and I've seen instances where the employee gave 2 weeks notice and the company felt they'd be better served just giving him two weeks of pay without him being at the workplace - turn in your badge and security will escort you from the building kind of thing.


I do know this - its never a good day for someone if you show up and 2 extra security guards are waiting in the lobby.

I can remember one guy we were legitimately concerned a known hothead would retaliate once he found out he was being let go. Fortunately he left without incident.
