I was a psychology major in my undergraduate degree. I would suggest that you either go into a PhD program right away or pick a different major. The jobs for psychology majors at the BA/BS level are very low paying. I love psychology but you really need to further your education to make a psychology degree worthwhile.

The cons are really the career options at the BA/BS level. I would still choose this major, but go straight for the PhD.
