When the RSUs vest you usually have the option to take all and pay the appropriate tax when tax season comes around OR take a reduced amount to cover the taxes. Do you recommend/have a preference? What are the pros and cons?

I'm at a company that automatically sells enough RSUs at vest date to cover withholding (the remainder is deposited alongside the regular salary). So that decision is made for me. No matter which option I'd take, I'd use the one that allows me to move as much money into retirement accounts, 401(k) etc. as quickly as possible.
