Cons
Con Servers can't handle traffic spikes
Voat can't yet handle large groups of people visiting the site all at the same time. This results in the site often being down. Many argue that the main issue is choice of underlying architecture (ASP.NET + MSSQL) that is difficult to scale.
Con Toxic community
Be prepared to find blatant racism here.
Con discontinued
The site is no longer active
Con Not specifically a job board
Reddit is not specifically a job board, so may lack some of the features you're looking for (such as a strong search feature).
