Generally it is acepted that a reasonable amount of time is 10 days from the day that it expires, or your employment terminates before it expires.

Technically there isn't one, I looked it up after someone asked before. You have to leave by the expiry date of your I-94 if you're still in employment. If you get laid off or something like that, there was a court case back in the 90s as I recall and the result of that was that you have a "reasonable" amount of time to leave and CBP seem to think that means 10 days going by their field manual.
