Expedia SWE London — cleared all rounds; no offer (hiring freeze)

Cleared Expedia interviews recently for their London location. However, the recruiter replied that they are evaluating business criticality of all their roles and hence no updates on offer.

While I understand that they cannot roll out offers immediately, has anyone been in a similar position ? Do they roll out offers once the situation gets better ?

Outcome: No offer (hiring freeze). Sentiment: Negative. The candidate cleared all interview rounds for the London office, but the recruiter cited a business-criticality review of roles, so no offer was extended.
