What are the pros/cons of being an ETOPS crew member?

Thanks for the replies.
Pros; etops flying is way more stable, fewer schedule disruptions and you're flying mostly the newer fleet...no clapped out -700s over there; AMs get easier as you head west
Cons: ... domestic flying first or last day and still potential for reroutes? Hawaii is expensive? None that outway the pros in my opinion
