Well a huge advantage would be that you're able to make some money to help you out at university and also you can have a think about what you want to study as well rather than just jumping straight into uni without really thinking about what you want to do.
A disadvantage would be that you'd be behind your age group, although people do go at all ages so that's not that big of a disadvantage really.

When I was in college, the companies would hire you on a Co-op program. You worked a semester, then you went to college for a semester.
The money you earned helped pay your tuition, and you got real life experience as opposed to textbook knowledge.
If your university has a program, you should consider it as the experience you gain will make you $$$$ in the future as a graduate.

1) You'll have a much better idea of what the work world is all about.
2) You may value your degree more when you see what it's like out there without one
3) You will gain experience and maturity

You are more likely to get hired after you graduate. Industry experience is worth a lot more than just getting your diploma.
