So, instead of downsizing which is what we would expect companies to do in tough times, they are rightsizing in anticipation of what's to come.

因此，他们没有像我们期望的那样，在困难时期缩减规模，而是在为即将发生的事情调整至合适的规模。

The same people who use the expression seem to have decided that 'down' has negative connotations, so these days you're just as likely to hear of a company being 'rightsized'.

而用这个短语的人群可能觉得单词down暗含消极的意思，所以现在大家最可能听到的是公司们用另外的词（来取代downsized）: rightsized裁员。
