Pyspark provides many advantages, but it has a few drawbacks as well. A few of them are:-

Since Python is an interpreted language, so pyspark code is relatively slower as compared to scala.

[{"selector":"#anim-15fff96b-a487-40f2-8c8b-d66a179b3a4a","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-09fdf1d9-c5c8-49ac-b706-68f6e33a9585","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 147.96413%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Pyspark consumes a lot of memory and sometimes it might be challenging if there are a large number of processes running.

[{"selector":"#anim-ee64492d-a455-4f36-bd19-7d1081f902c2","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-686b69fe-cc46-46b9-bce6-4dbe1649d8b2","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 135.68153%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Expressing a problem in pyspark is Difficult.

[{"selector":"#anim-144b10d3-e8ed-45e1-bbb2-ca3763709eef","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-3006b1e1-4716-42a5-be1c-72ec8a34f258","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 312.84715%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

There are a few functionalities that are only available in scala/java but not available in pyspark.

[{"selector":"#anim-e698fc31-6d21-4fe4-a516-d1a46507751e","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-0c66367a-cdbf-4ace-8a43-7d731c5e87a4","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 152.93304%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Since spark is written in scala so using pyspark we cannot fully utilize the internal functioning of Spark.
