The 'rightsizing' talk is getting louder... anyone else hearing it?

Lately, the word 'rightsizing' has been popping up more often in internal communications and team meetings. It's always couched in terms of 'strategic realignment' or 'optimizing our talent pool,' but let's be real, we all know what it usually means. There haven't been any official announcements, no mass emails, but the vibe is definitely shifting. Some teams are already seeing reduced contractor hours and a freeze on backfills. I've also heard anecdotal evidence of people being encouraged to explore 'other opportunities' through performance management, which feels like a soft way of pushing people out. It's creating a lot of anxiety, especially for those who've been here a while. Anyone else feeling this pressure cooker environment? Wondering if we should start polishing resumes preemptively or if this is just the usual consulting churn.
