Should pilots give 2 week notice, when EMS companies give zero days of notice when shutting down bases? Should we return the favor? Honestly I don't know why its a thing in this industry.

All depends? Do they offer you another work location? If that is not an option, do they continue to pay you for two more weeks?

"Should pilots give 2 weeks notice..."   

2 week notice is the responsible thing to do. 

“Two wrongs don't make a right, but they make a good excuse.”

― Thomas Szasz

Your employer may be a jerk, but you shouldn't be- you're a "professional", right?

Been in HAA for 20 years and have seen a few bases close in that time.   At each closure, the pilots have been retained for at least a month after closure with no obligations to work elsewhere.

Most people know or should know that base closings happen and that's part of the deal.  If you don't give 2 weeks notice you might be placed on the company's "not rehirable".  Will they let your next potential employer know that?  Try it and see.

Again then don't give two weeks. Then you may burn a bridge up to you.

on what you agreed to from the get-go of employment.  I gave two months to allow them time to find a replacement.  They totally squandered that so the operation went down to 3 pilots for almost a year.

should they announce it suddenly and shut down their base?
