As much as I wish I could try an F2000 or AUG, I have no credible first-hand experience and can only parrot complaints that I have read on the Internet:
Ambidextrous use is more difficult when the ejection port is next to the shooter’s face. It’s not ideal for all your left-handed soldiers to have their weapons setup differently from all your right-handed soldiers. A workaround like the forward ejection on the F2000 is technically impressive, but complex.
All the controls - trigger, safety, bolt release, magazine release - are either operated by longer/more complex mechanisms or are tucked under the shooter’s chin, farther away from the normal hand positions.
Putting the chamber close to the shooter’s ear is nobody’s idea of fun.
