rightsizing
noun [ U ] uk/ˈraɪt.saɪ.zɪŋ/ /ˈraɪt.saɪ.zɪŋ/
(公司)精简(规模)(尤其是在避免使用“缩减”这个词的时候)
the practice of making a company or an organization smaller by reducing the number of people working for it, or to become smaller in this way (used especially by organizations that want to avoid using the word "downsize")
Business types sometimes try to rationalize downsizing as "rightsizing". 企业界人士有时试图将缩减规模合理化为"精简规模"。
But as with any significant change, rightsizing is not all good news. 但是,与任何重大变化一样,精简规模并非都是好消息。
