Confused on the MVV by junkstephen

while visiting can I still work for my us company / banking by junkstephen
Hello, I'm thinking of moving to the Netherlands and thought it'd be a good idea to stay there for 80 days and see if it's something I'd like. "I'm thinking of being a permanent resident and working for a Dutch company, so ...
