My question, as Ksigkid noted, was more about law firms, where in some cases you're dealing with the same clients for years.

Yes, I understand. I find the differences interesting. In my own department, people have been given about a month notice and are able to continue on the job if they choose or they can leave. They have been able to use resources at work to job hunt and aren't made to take vacation time or anything for interviews. They work hard to try to find them other jobs within our system, for the most part. But, the people who have been laid off in my department didn't have any real power or access to much that they could sabotage. I don't know what would happen if it were me. I suspect I'd be escorted out because of my IT access. The amount of work when one of us leaves voluntarily is huge because so many passwords have to be changed. It's a royal pain!
