When it's very cloudy they help bring out the details in the snow, but when it's sunny they give a lot of people headaches because it's way too bright.
If you want something more versatile, check out a cheap Persimmon lens, H.I. Persimmon, or Pink Iridium.

It's good for night skiing and very cloudy days.

Check out the Blue Iridum (or HI Blue, dont remember), it's really great for an allround lens and for night skiing.

Wouldn't want to wear them during the day, but at night I always go with my HI Yellow lenses. So much easier to see.

Blue Iridium works great in all conditions except for flat light at the end of the day. I find that it actually works better for night skiing than it does at the end of the day.
