1-2 weeks usually.

I know this is standard, but depending on the nature of your work, this may not be nearly sufficient enough for them

One of my co-workers recently left to take another job, she gave 3 weeks notice, and my boss, who is usually totally chill about everything, was not pleased at all. We work in academic research, and this person was in charge of several projects that I have now been left to take over. But the transition was not / is not completely smooth and basically I have no idea what the [censored] is going on with half of what I'm doing now.

I don't mind, basically as long as everyone understands why I'm fumbling around with everything then I don't really care, but our boss really took it as a personal offense that she would not have given her more notice about her departure.
