cd .. command does not work with gcloud compute ssh while other basic commands (such as pwd) do work. Why? [duplicate]

I have a running instance my-instance running on google-cloud. I run the following code on my local machine:

gcloud compute ssh my-instance --command 'pwd'
gcloud compute ssh my-instance --command 'cd ..'
gcloud compute ssh my-instance --command 'pwd'

my output is:

/home/pal
/home/pal

My expectation is:

/home/pal
/home

It seems that cd .. is not working. Why is it? It is surprising for me especially that pwd works as shown above. How can I solve the issue?
