The arguments I've heard are basically increased cognitive load and the ability to make spaghetti logic. There may also be some concern, depending on the language, that problems are more likely if you can arbitrarily exit a scope/context without cleanup steps you might be counting on. IMHO, I believe the reasoning behind "exceptions are bad" comes from a similar place.
