Pro
It's cross platform
If you have a Python Script, you can use cx_Freeze to turn it into an executable on the platform you use it for. It will run on any platform where Python itself runs on. Note, however, that it can't cross-compile.

Con
Needs you to use a setup script
Won't detect that a file needs to be copied if it is not dynamically loaded by your program, you have to tell cx_Freeze about it in a setup script.

Con
Not a cross-compiler
While you can use cx_Freeze on any platform where python itself works on, you can't cross-compile (compile an app for another platform).

Source code can be obtained
Since cx_Freeze does not provide solutions to reverse engineering or decompiling. Python bytecode can be obtained and the logic of your app can be exposed.
