So unless you’re in a premium cabin and on the first bus out (we were and it was fine, it added fewer than 10 minutes), you should likely count on an extra 10-15 minutes after the doors open before you would otherwise normally be able to reach the immigration area.
Even when AC was in 2A, load and unload by bus was common - 2A never had enough gates. Surprised this is still happening since when I was there the 2B non-Schengen area seemed to have lots of gate space in the morning but it is CDG so who knows.
