In France, the standard for software engineers is 3 months. Verified with this official source https://code.travail.gouv.fr/outils/preavis-demission. With convention "Bureaux d'études techniques, cabinets d'ingénieurs-conseils et sociétés de conseils".
That's crazy. So if they present a same day resignation note they have to pay a three month salary penalty? That's just companies stealing workers' money.
I don't think I understand your comment, who has to pay a penalty? Who's stealing what? You can't do a same day resignation unless the company agrees. If they don't agree, they can ask you to keep working for 3 months, and if you don't come to work, they may declare you abandoned your job. Then, they don't have to pay you, but you're still officially an employee so you can't legally start a new contract, they may ask you for a compensation payment and also sue you for damage.
In Spain you may resign before, but they can subtract for each missing working day to the notice period end the money they own you (it is a penalty, not just discounting from salary the days you are not working). In some cases leaving workers use their remaining PTO days to exchange to leave before the period of notice as they have the same value. So in Spain a greater period of notice can result in bigger penalties when leaving a company, while companies can fire you on the spot (paying the required severance).
