Hey, it's an at-will employment place, that goes both ways.
If your company would like that to be different, they have the option to offer you a contract that stipulates notice periods for either side. (And that means you are guaranteed employment during the notice period, IIRC). They chose not to.
So they are ipso facto OK with you leaving without notice.

- Aurornis 3y agoThe employer version of this is severance, not a notice period. Your logic is flawed. Getting severance is better than a notice period anyway because you can get a new job and still get the money.
- gymbeaux 3y agoThe employer version is bringing you into a meeting with HR and telling you you've been let go. Sure, sometimes people get severance, but I've never worked anywhere that does that.
- FireBeyond 3y ago> The employer version of this is severance, not a notice period. So I can assume that there will be contractual severance allowances in my employment contract? Maybe, but not in the last several I've signed, with large and small companies.
- groby_b 3y agoSeverance is entirely at will as well, unless you have a contractual guarantee. Logic remains.
