If 2 weeks isn't enough time, then why does the contract say 2 weeks? Instead of expecting one side to go above and beyond what's laid out in the contract (as many have said, the 2 weeks notice is a very asymmetrical part of the contract already), why not write it into the contract instead? Have incentives for employees to give 4 or 6 weeks notice, and maybe offer something back on the other side, like an employer-guaranteed severance of 4 weeks pay for any reason of termination that's not something like stealing from the company, etc.
When you start making blanket statements about "you should always give [something]," then maybe it should be contractual rather than an "unwritten rule."
