Delaying Analyst Program Start Date

I’m scheduled to begin my analyst program at an EB within the next few months, and it seems likely that we are going to be offered the option to defer our start date by several months if we choose to. I wanted to get some opinions on the cons of choosing this option from a career standpoint. thank you!
