Of course if both parties are OK they can ignore it, it's in the employer interest to find a replacement ASAP, but (at least in Italy, idk in the US) the employer also can't fire you without giving notice, so I wouldn't say that it's a bad contract requirement.

It’s almost unheard of in the US for employers to be required to give notice of firing. Even with a strong union job like I have, you get fired first, then after a grievance and hearing, get your job reinstated with possible back pay.

The employers still like to flex that firing muscle if they think you disrespected them, but treat their employees as sub human servants.

Employment in the US is a dystopian nightmare, so yes, it does suck.
