    At my current job, two weeks wouldn't even be enough notice, really. Likely, I will give them more along the lines of 2 months notice, to give them time to replace me and let me validate\train the new person.

    This, however, goes the other way: This is not your problem it is theirs. Replacing you is also not your problem, but theirs.

    And unless you have some contract or agreement with them that says otherwise, (or your laws require it), IMHO you are only ethically required to give as much notice for leaving as their policy requires them to give you for layoffs or other involuntary termination (including any guaranteed severance pay). Fair's fair, no matter who's wearing the boots.
