This.
The company is acquiring another one for $5.4B and there is a hiring freeze? Doesn't sound like it is being run very well. They are trying to get you to do as much for your current pay for as long as possible.
I saw this with claims interns at my first job at an insurance company. They would get interns in and pay them basically minimum wage claiming they would get trained for a full-time position down the road. Each one was told that there weren't any positions open yet, meanwhile they were hiring/training new claims associates 20-25 at a time for 3 month periods.
Not saying this is exactly what is happening at your job, but I would start looking elsewhere. If you come back with an offer from another company a position at yours might "suddenly" open up.
