What are the pros and cons of doing OMSCS if one already has a BSCS?

I'm about to graduate with a BS and I will be going straight into the workforce, but I'd like to pursue a MS (without taking time off from work).

Pros: Deepens your knowledge of CS and can be used to focus on a more specialized field e.g. machine learning

Cons: Time and money investment. May be unnecessary if you just want a standard dev job.
