Circling Approach rules
Last company I worked for had SOP to adjust the downwind leg timing of Circling Approaches for wind.

Also added 50ft to MDA.

Company I now work for says no need to adjust for wind effect as a tailwind allowance of up to 25kts is built into the Airbus Circling SOP.

Also say no need to add 50ft to MDA due to level off for circling.

Any thoughts? Who's right?
