Pros

Free masters degree from Georgia Tech (Top 10 Engineer Grad School). Takes ~2.5 years to finish (1 extra year than traditional grad school). So for 1 extra year, you also get 2+ years work experience, 2+ years of salary/401(k) match, travel the country, and build a great resume.

Cons

Masters degree doesn't earn you a salary bump with the company. The two raises received while "on-program" will bring you to the same level you'd have been at just getting your masters degree.
