(tl;dr: crapshoot as to whether you get featured, but worth it if you do.) my personal experience with it was positive. I posted my site on PH over the summer (plug: https://avant.fm https://avant.fm, a customizable feed of new releases from the best indie music labels). After a couple weeks it was featured for a day. Not sure how that happened, but someone with some pull "hunted" it I guess. About 30 other sites were featured that day. I eventually made it to #4 and got 1000 hits, roughly, with a very slowly decaying tail. I still get a couple referrals a day from PH. Now the traffic was nice, though temporary. But I also appreciated it as a an additional reason to get out there shout about my site. I had already announced it on twitter, but this gave the opportunity to spend another day hyping. I made a couple twitter posts as I climbed up, and then a final one when I had reached my peak and the day was over. But I also reached out individually to many people via DM or email, asking them to upvote me. This was an unique opportunity because it's a less awkward ask than "check out my website and tell me what you think." This created some nice networking moments and opportunities where I felt like the site got on the radar of a few people in a helpful way, hopefully paving the way for something in the future.
