Pros

By default, it is setup to backup my Desktop Shortcuts, My Documents, and my Internet Explorer Favorites folders. When I sign into a new PC, it automatically syncs these items, making it easy for my data to travel with me.
I'm able to easily share my items/folders with coworkers, granting them read or read/write access as required.
I like that items that are shared with me allow me to choose to sync them to my PC or not. This allows me to sync smaller items like documents and spreadsheets, but keep things like webex recordings stored in the cloud and not using up gigabtyes of space on my PC. :)
I like that, during times when I want to free up resources, I can pause the syncing of files.

Cons

I would appreciate it if it backed up more than just Desktop, Favorites and Documents by default. I'm not sure if this was something chosen by my employer, but it would be nice if the whole profile folder was backed up by default, so my pictures, music, and videos folders were included.

Return on Investment

The ease of use saves me a lot of time.
Being able to easily share files with my coworkers also saves me time.
This allowed my company to reduce the size of our file server and in doing so, reduced our storage budget.
