What the pros n cons using squid as bridge n transparent ?
Squid does not bridge. Squid is a proxy. It only proxies traffic. The box underneath Squid can be bridging non-HTTP traffic, but that is not Squid.
Also, HTTP specifications mandate certain alterations to the traffic when proxied. There is no transparent. There is interception in various forms though.
There is one obvious "Pro", and many hidden "Cons" ... http://wiki.squid-cache.org/SquidFaq/InterceptionProxy#Concepts_of_Interception_Caching Amos
