Do people require acclimation for descending into the earth the same way they require it when climbing a mountain?

First, I’d like to say I’m not sure if the flair I’m using is the most accurate and appropriate for my question. I’ve started out with biology, but if another flair would be more appropriate please let me know and I’ll change it promptly.

I’ve always wondered what sort of acclimation a relatively straight descent into earth would require. When I Google underground acclimation, however, I mostly hear about acclimating to the heat as you descent (which is another good thing to learn about and an important factor).

I understand that as you descend underground, you get an increase in pressure. My question: would you need to make occasional stops to adjust to the change in pressure as you go deeper underground? And an additional question, if I’m allowed: on your way up from being underground, would you need to make occasional stops for the same reason?

You don't need to acclimatise to higher pressures in the way you need to do for lower pressures.

An extreme example is diving.  Divers can go down at the rate they like without many issues (gas mixes may need to change) but need to be careful coming up so they don't reduce pressure to quickly and get the bends.

If you went down a deep enough hole you would need to be careful coming up.
