Being in the middle of an acquisition is a form of limbo. Nobody wants to start anything new, partly because of management uncertainty and partly because it could change the valuation. It consumes all the time of top management, and nobody is minding the store. So you don't want to spend too many months stuck in that state. (I know a company that's in that position right now, and there's no visible planning for 2021.) |

I have this impression as well, detaching a bit and looking at 'everything' (or as much as my perch will allow).
To say it's frustrating would be an understatement; I considered applying to a role and effectively taking a demotion and being an IC again. Which, if it says anything--is something my last two predecessors did as well.
Otherwise you've hit every nail on the head and quite well summed up my feeling of 'limbo'.
