Pros

Could not say as couldn't join.

Cons

The bgv process is time consuming. Keep an eye on it till your last day at your current organization. If its incomplete, take back your resignation. As its mandatory to complete before joining. I have wasted 2 months after leaving my current organization just to listen that bgv is negative. Couldn't join as a result.
