A couple of posts that really made this click for me (just beginning my programming career). This is javascript library, but the concepts do translate functional programming in general.
After reading this series of blog posts and using Ramda.js for the last year or so, I can see the value here. But you do have to "get it" which means learning additional concepts, if the additional learning isn't a burden to your team (I hope your team isn't averse to learning new concepts) then I think it's an asset to be used when it makes sense.
