In this episode WebWare’s CEO Philip Hart sacks his Sales Director for underperforming. Philip uses 2 expressions to do this. The first is I’m going to have to let you go which is quite a gentle way of expressing the fact. The second is You’re fired, which is a little more direct.
There are even more ways to express this in English. Dismiss and discharge are both quite formal:

He was dismissed for turning up late on a regular basis.
The director was discharged of his duties.

Dismiss: to remove someone from their job 免...的职;解雇;开除
He was dismissed from his job.
他被开除了。

Discharge: to give sb official permission to leave a place or job; to make sb leave a job
She was discharged from the police force for bad conduct.
她因行为不轨被清除出警察队伍。

Other less formal, but more colorful ways of saying the same thing are:
give someone the axe
give someone their cards
give someone the boot
