Hello Alicia,
In my opinion, as long as the proper expectations were set and everything is in writing, there are only pros to partnerships. The only time I have experienced cons in partnerships is when there were no expectations of who is going to do what, or what the payouts will be. Set the right expectations and make sure it's all in writing and partnerships are great!
