Pros
Pro Integrates with other Google services
For example, you can use search to search through both Drive and Gmail.
Pro File sharing & collaborative editing
Google account holders and non-holders can be set to access and/or collaborate on files/folders in real-time. Additionally, you can find files you've shared not only by filename but by person you've shared the files with.
Pro Extended functionality via apps
Third party Drive applications running in Chrome or on Android can add functionality such as image/video editing, project management, flowchart creation, etc.
Cons
Con Data privacy not guaranteed
Data privacy is widely known as one of Google's weaknesses. Data shared through Google is most likely matched up with the user's profile inside other Alphabet inc. subsidiaries, and, due to the business model, used commercially.
Con No security password or pin
If a phone is stolen or someone has access to your phone and it is not password locked as a whole, the new "owner" can easily wipe all of Drive. A separate password option for the Drive application would be a great solution to this problem
