Hi!

Pros:
Security. You can make device management based on private addresses like 
10./172. So no one ever can get remote access to your routers from internet.

Cons:
Memory consuption on routers.
Each full view will consume more router's ram that usual.
A bit more annoying troubleshoot - you need to type ping vrf, trace vrf and so 
on

Works well on NPE-G1, IOS bases GSR's
