That reasoning is just a rumor.
But the FOM says
"Company pilots won't engage in any other commercial flying."
So commercial rules apply, but PPL is allowed as much as you want.
With the exception of, "must be on LOA, and VP ops permission".
I know rentals are expensive, but you wouldn't be allowed to "work" for free?
