As far as I know, your processor works hard powering up so, no. I leave mine on also.

I've never found it bad. I hibernate all the time. It is far quicker than
shutting down, although i must add that i occasionally - say once a week or
so, shut down the pc completely and then reboot, but generally the pc is
hibernated every time.
