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，困难时期缩减规模，而是为即将发生事情整至合适规模。

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'.

而用这个短语可能觉得单词down暗含消极意思，所以现大家最可能听到是公司们用另外词（来取代downsized）: rightsized裁员。
