It’s not typically written into the contract for most jobs I’ve seen, but it’s still considered very unprofessional to leave without giving the company time to find a replacement. It doesn’t just mess with the company or your boss; it messes with your coworkers, too, who now have to pick up the slack.
Basically, while it’s not written into your contract, it’s still considered socially unacceptable not to give a two week notice barring any unusual circumstances.
If it’s considered ‘unprofessional’ then that is a raging misconception. At will contracts also mess wirh the company and your coworkers, demanding a courtesy you won’t give your workers is horseshit.

Na my dude, as long it’s not considered at least as unprofessional for companies to let people on the spot they can go an fuck them self.
Want a mandated notice period? Put it in contract for both parties. That’s how it works in countries with sane worker laws.
