On: Career advice no one gave me: Give a lot of notice...

Will a company give you notice when they fire you? Especially if it's a toxic company? No.

You don't reciprocate (as long as you're okay with burning some bridges - which should be fine with above criteria).

Even though I know OP lives in US: in Europe you get written down the notice period on your contract. If you decide to quit or if your company decides to fire you, both parties have to honor the notice period (usually between 1-3 months).

I personally am okay with the American model tbf.

When I want to quit immediately, I don't want to stay miserable in the same job for 1-3 months. 3 months would be insane for me. As long as it works both ways (I can quit whenever, and you can fire me whenever) - it's fine.

Acceptable. Preferred even.

They'll often pay severance, which is the part of the job the employee materially benefits from.
