re: Why do you have(traditionally) to give a two weeks notice, but your company can

Giving two weeks' notice is a sign of good faith as it gives the company time to adjust with an interim plan. Likewise, most companies will usually pay severance for good employees who are let go for reasons not their fault, in a similar sign of good faith.

Both can terminate the employment immediately though of course it reflects badly on the one who does this (assuming the employee is doing what is asked of him/her).
