Relocating, travelling or planning to make Singapore home? Discuss the criterias, passes or visa that is required.

This was exactly the reason why my former employer's HR advised against PLOC.
They advised against PLOC because of no levy/quota/CPF or because of the misconception that it’s “cheap”?

I did recall a member on the forum (Sunjackal?) who was on LTVP-PLOC being paid their worth though. Uncommon but it happens.

Her advice was something along the lines of not recommended because companies tend to think of it as "lower" than EP which was reference to how they tend to low ball employees on PLOC. Obviously, not everyone, but there's always that possibility.
