I don't believe shift is correct. Previous employers CAN say anything they damn well please. However, it has become a de facto standard for your previous employer to NOT say anything other than "yes, he worked here for XX years/months" whatever.
to say anything more, i.e. -- he was a total asshole, I wouldn't hire him if you paid me--opens the employer to a huge lawsuit. False claims, restraint of trade (I believe) etc.
And in this litigious society (U.S.) employers just provide the minimum.
