Yes, of course there are pros and cons to most everything and using Nitrox is no exception. Limitations and potential problems include the need for a maximum operating depth (MOD), the risk of acute/CNS oxygen toxicity, the need for extra cylinders if you wish to use Nitrox for decompression on ascent from deep dives, and the handling of pure oxygen while making Nitrox is riskier than using compressed air.
