I've always heard that "Professional Ettiquete " is 2 weeks notice.
But, when I was confronted with this situation a couple of years ago I did some research and you can basically stop working the day you give notice. You are an "At-Will" employee and you dont have to work any longer than you want. Its like if they decide they want to lay you off. They can do so that day. They do not have to let you work 2 weeks before forcing you to leave right? Same goes for you. You can leave when you want.
For me it came down to how long I had worked at the company. In my case, I had worked there less than a year. Therefore I gave one weeks notice. If I had been there for a couple of years, I probably would have given 2 weeks because I would want to help my friends out.
Anyway. thats my spin. If you like em.. help em out..if you dont, leave when you want. But keep in mind a good balance because you never know when you might meet those people again or need them again.
