My 2016, 12inch retina display MacBook recently had a new battery replaced. After that or possibly an os update, it takes several minutes to wake up when I open the top. Never had this issue with my older MacBook or my iMac. Has anyone had this issue and found a way to fix it? Thanks.
Got a tip for us?

Two minutes to wake up!

I was wondering because what likely happened is that the NVMe drive has hit the write limit on several blocks.
Do you have an external drive or other peripheral attached?
Have you tried a fresh macOS install?

Try creating a new user account. Don't bother linking it to iCloud (hit "set up later" when it bugs you about it). Restart, log into that account only. Put the machine to sleep and see if it still has trouble waking. If it doesn't, you know it's something in your own user account. If it does, it's likely something deeper with the system or hardware.
I think you could try a reinstall through the recovery system. (I would prefer reinstalling from a bootable installer, but easy enough to do that through your recovery system.
If the flash storage is beginning to fail, the reinstall will likely speed up that failure. In my experience, a failing SSD can do that pretty quickly, with very little, or no warning. You will want to make sure you have a current backup if you do a reinstall. The reinstall is pretty simple, and will often help.
If you still seem to have problems after that reinstall, then you could do a wipe and restore.

Not really, what happens is that the SSD isn't being properly maintained. Very likely it still has lots of write cycles as "junk", but for some reason the TRIM function might not be working.
just reformat and reinstall. Will be better anyway. While Mac OS is not Windows, still lot of junk files, corrupted preferences, files left from uninstalled apps may remain in System Library and hamper your workflow. In addition, the original OS probably was updated many times and also has a lot of unused things. A fresh format and install will help you get rid of unused things. Usually download installer first on USB or something, that will be faster as Monterey has a very big installer.
As recommended earlier by ignatius345, create a new account to discount dodgy preferences. Should always be the first diagnostic move, the least invasive and only takes minutes.
Isn't that what the OP is doing? Waiting for it to come out of sleep.Oh wait.....
