Except that in places with at-will employment, including much (all ?) of the US, the employer really doesn't have to go over all the reasons in excruciating detail.

All they have to do is deliver the news, complete any end of employment paperwork, mail any of the employee's stuff home to them, and not contest unemployment.

In places with at will employment, the let's ~~berate~~ go over everything that's wrong with the employee song and dance is 100% CYA for the employer, who often either intends to fight the unemployment claim or is firing the employee for an illegal reason.

Does it "feel good"? No. I've done it. I hated it. And I'll never take a managerial job again because of it.

Do I have any sympathy for people who "have to" fire employees? No I do not.
