[KN] Decision Making
[AN] Joint ventures require collaboration and consensus between the partnering companies
[AN+] The need to compromise and reach agreements with partners may result in slower decision-making and hinder a company's ability to respond quickly to market changes.

[KN] Loss of autonomy
[AN] When entering a joint venture, a company must relinquish some level of autonomy and control over its operations.
[AN+] In cases where the partners have conflicting goals or values, this loss of autonomy can lead to frustration and challenges in maintaining the original company's identity.

The first point is wrong and should be changed. The second point is utterly ridiculous as partners go through a partnership agreement before this.

[AN+] This can lead to conflicts making it harder to run the business the way you want.

[KN] Conflicts.
[AN] Differences in goals, strategies, and decision making can lead to disparities between the two ventures. This can hinder effective cooperation.
[AN+] Thus this can result in slow decision making which can question business long term success.

[KN] Shared profits.
[AN] When profits will be shared b/w the businesses this may result in low financial reward received to each business.
[AN+] Thus this can lead to low motivation as they could have gotten a chunk of share if they operated separately and independently.

[kn] each business has their own style of operating
[an] thus when two businesses collaborate for a temporary amount of time it can cause disagreements and conflicts amongst one another
[n+] leading to slower decision making and thus slower expansion
[kn] if any mistake takes place causing the business plan to fail near closure time
[an] it will lead to arguments and both businesses having to bare the cost of the mistake
[an+] leading to the entire idea going into vain in the end
