1. Introduction
In recent years, research on employee downsizing has led to a better understanding of the different issues surrounding this phenomenon in terms of both its potential causes and consequences (e.g., Budros, 1997, 1999; Brauer & Laamanen, 2014; Datta, Guthrie, Basuil, & Pandey, 2010; Harney, Fu, & Freeney, 2018; Mellahi & Wilkinson, 2010a, 2010b; Norman, Butler, & Ranft, 2013; Zorn, Norman, Butler, & Bhussar, 2017). There are, nonetheless, several key issues that remain unexplored, such as the potential impact of a firm’s international strategy on downsizing. An influential review conducted by Datta et al. (2010) does not find any empirical work exploring this effect. A summary review of more recent studies reveals that this effect remains largely ignored in the management field (e.g., Harney et al., 2018; Schenkel & Teigland, 2017; Schulz & Wiersema, 2018; Tsai & Yen, 2018; Vicente-Lorente & Zúñiga-Vicente, 2018; Zorn et al., 2017). Because past research has reported the negative impacts of downsizing on employees (see Quinlan & Bohle, 2009), it is essential to understand its potential facilitators and/or inhibitors. We argue that a firm’s international strategy can have a significant effect on downsizing. Researchers in international trade (mainly economists) have shown an interest in exploring the impact of internationalization —via exporting— on job growth. Within this stream of literature, the effect on job growth of exporting —considered the dominant strategy in firms’ international expansion (e.g., Cerrato & Piva, 2012; Lu & Beamish, 2001; Onkelinx, Manolova, & Edelman, 2016; Salomon & Jin, 2010)— is generally expected to be positive, based on the premise that as a firm produces more goods and services for foreign markets, this higher production will translate into a need to hire more workers. This optimistic view has been voiced by scholars, business leaders, policymakers, and the popular press, although the findings are mixed (e.g., Bernard & Jensen, 1999; Di Cintio, Ghosh, & Grassi, 2016; Slaper, 2015). Here, we contend that a firm’s international strategy might have a significant effect on its decision to downsize. In fact, there is now growing interest in the management field in exploring the potential associations between a firm’s internationalization strategy and its human resources (HR). In this regard, research from a resource-based view (RBV) indicates that a firm’s HR become a critical factor when entering foreign markets via exporting (Cerrato & Piva, 2012; GomezMejia, 1988; Onkelinx et al., 2016).
