Two things concern me about Kotlin:

1. The language and its future are heavily intertwined with JetBrains and their motivations. It's difficult to say whether this is a good thing or bad, but issues like the one discussed at https://discuss.kotlinlang.org/t/any-plan-for-supporting-lan... don't inspire confidence.

2. Java seems to be moving ahead at a rapid pace and is slowly absorbing many of the features that once distinguished Kotlin. This makes it difficult to jusify introducin Kotlin at a company where Java is heavily used.
