Perhaps fictional in the US. They are very much legal fact in (most of?) Europe where at-will employment isn't really a thing.

I assumed this story took place in the US, where people talk about "probationary periods" all the time despite basically your entire term of employment being "probationary" in this sense. Yes, if you're in Europe it's a totally different story.
