Not in most states, especially if it is a right-to-work state. The employer can terminate your employment for any reason that is not specifically prohibited by law i.e. race, religion, sex, disability, etc.

Can a company fire you for reporting a crime made in the company?
You can sue them if they do, so essentially your answer is no. An employee cannot sue an employer EXCEPT when the employee already holds evidence that the employer violated a civil statute (EEO law, Workers COmp, unemployment, etc.). Without evidence that a civil statute was violated, no judge will allow you to file. Some statutes prohibit firing employees who report crimes in good faith, but the employee does not sue the government does.

Is it legal for employer to demand that employee give up the right to sue as a condition for employment?
No way. That agreement is nonenforceable even if you sign it. An employer may not preempt the right to sue, especially over an issue of illegal conduct by the employer. Agreements involving illegal behavior always nonbinding. However, the employer will most likely fire you if you sue them later, so be prepared to be unemployed. (Of course, you could then sue them again for unlawful termination). If a company is overtly concerned with this issue, you probably don't want to work there anyway.
