I've found that when the environment/vibe/culture is right, asking this question can allow you to address some concerns immediately, as well as in follow-ups (thank you letters, second rounds, etc.). But, there is definitely some risk with the question. So, it's not something I typically suggest for novice interviewers or every industry.
