It can mangle Visual Studio settings
Occasionally Visual Studio and Resharper settings can get into a tug of war. Features can disappear, for example, Intellisense can vanish, and you're often resetting options in hopes of getting yourself back to a working IDE.

Refactoring tools are powerful
Extract interfaces, generate constructors, rename namespaces, create equality statements, create ToString() summaries, etc.

Licencing cost and T&Cs
The license T&Cs are somewhat harsh. The yearly license gets you a year's worth of updates, but you don't get major version release within that window. Instead, you're downgraded to the previous major version that you bought the license on.

Extremely useful when reading code written by others
ReSharper has a built-in "go to implementation" feature which takes you to the body of the implementation of a method from an interface. This makes it easy to read code written by other people simply by going over the interfaces and using this feature to quickly find the implementation of a particular method.

Performance leaves something to be desired
The performance has been an issue for years, and many developers who have tried this tool gave up because of the performance hit running it. You may often find the tool to make Visual Studio slow down to almost an intolerable level.
