That's execution without judgment, even a simple hearing might not be enough because the circumstance might be complex

I wasn't implying execution without judgment. What I meant was "immediate dismissal after confirming what happened". My point is that if you do any of those things you might not get a second chance at the same company. While for something like performance issues you should be given feedback and opportunities to improve instead of being immediately fired.
Mostly agree here.

But dont you remember stories from your life when you met people that telling from all your experience would not improve on performance? Or say you dont have time to teach anyone life or work ethics?

Managers are here to save everyone time I guess. Firing very often is saving everyone time.

Can we agree that I as the CEO and owner of the company can fire anyone without explanations but only if I fulfill my obligations of covering the pay 2 weeks upfront etc.?

Bottom line can I fire someone simply if I dont like them? Thats a question for the next Ask HN)))
