How well does Vray animation work

Does Vray animation work well within SU? How does it work?

It works but I think most people stay away from it. SU itself is not great with animation workflow. There are a few tutorials on how to setup your lighting options for animation over at the Chaos forums and on the web.

I've been able to get reasonable animations out of it using the flightpath plugin. Render times are not too swell, so that's been my biggest limitation. I haven't done one recently, but you can see on I did here:

My understanding is that if you plan on getting into a lot of animation work, you need Max and Vray.

right. and learn Max...
There's also Modo, Cinema4D, Maya, etc.
Definitely depends on how much animation you're doing whether it's worth putting up with vfsu.
Also, note that vfsu is limited with animating objects between scenes (as in you can't)
In terms of setting up an animation, you can pre-calculate the light cache and the irradiance map. Here's the link to the tutorial I used. http://vray.us/vray_tutorials/vray_tutorial_irradiance_map2.shtmlAndy
