In my experience, offering 2 weeks is the standard courtesy but most ex-employers will work to get you out the door ASAP so they can get on with things.

When I left my last job my notice was 3 months and they insisted I work it.

If you were in a hire-at-will state, you could have just walked. They can't hold you to a time period.
