exFAT is fine in a pinch, but it's the only filesystem I've ever truly FUBAR'd by pulling a drive without ejecting. So long as you always safely remove and let the OS sync all the buffers it's probably okay.
For data you really care about, it's probably best to use the HFS driver for Linux or the EXT4 driver for Mac, depending on which OS you use more, and where performance is more important.
