Is it correct that the output of jobs contains the working directory when invoking each job (not necessarily the current working directory of each job)?

$ jobs -l | grep JDBC
[15]  20422 Running   PDFXCview all.pdf &  (wd: ~/mydata/dirlinks/cs/SQL/API/JDBC/general/official/tutorials)
[20]  20542 Running   PDFXCview all.pdf &  (wd: ~/mydata/dirlinks/cs/SQL/API/JDBC/general/wikipedia)

Similarly, in ps, is it possible to get the working directory of each process ?

In pgrep, is it possible to search in the pathname (string) of the working directory of each process, like pgrep ... <pattern_in_working_dir_pathname>?

I would like to search for processes, by keywords in their working directories when invoking them

Thanks.

Similarly, in ps, is it possible to get the previous working directory of each process when invoking it
