What are the pros and cons?

Most NVRs have pretty bad security back doors.  I'd seriously advise against it.

Investigate using something like tailscale (free for 50 devices) which makes a sort of VPN without requiring any port forwarding.
Or if you must port forward, put in a vpn and access your HVR that way.
