Engine Fire on Ground

What are your views on putting the burning engine downwind after a rejected take off because of engine fire.

This is what my company SOP is, but if you were taking off with a 90 degree xwind from the left and your left engine caught fire then that would mean making a 180 degree turn before stopping.

The last company I worked for wanted the crew to turn directly into the wind.
