These statements always catch me a bit off-guard. Is there no such thing as a cancelation period in the US? When my employer wants to kick me out, he needs a good reason for that and I'd still be paid for 3 months. Which is often even longer, depending on how long you belong to a company.

Edit: I'm in germany

There is a WARN[1] period before the employee is officially laid off, but their access to all the corporate resources are cut off immediately. From the employee perspective, they have lost everything the moment they are being told that they are laid off. It doesn't matter that they are still getting paid.
