Does it make any real difference whether or not you pursue a masters program online or in person?

I'm just curious, may consider pursuing a master's degree but I don't know if it would put me at a disadvantage if the program I pursued was online.

I'm not talking about a for-profit university, but let's hypothetically say my university offered an online masters program where I could be able to work full-time and continue my education. Is this frowned upon?

I do not see it as a problem as long as you do well and develop your knowledge and skills.
