The biggest weakness for Mei is open space. Her alt is tricky to use due to the slower speed of the icicles and most of her abilities works best in confine spaces. Also her slow speed makes it easy to simply run away and reset the fight though forcing people away from key areas is part of the job for her.
Don't forget she's close-range. She's super effective in close spaces but in the open, you can simply stand outside her ice-beam's range and kill her with a medium-ranged DPS hero. Soldier-76 and Genji in particular are effective against her. Genji due to his mobility, and Soldier-76 because he can self-heal and he's most effective at medium range where Mei has trouble hitting if she isn't spot-on with her icicle projectiles (which are hard to aim at a juking target).
