Just figured out a solution!! Didn't test that long enough, but basically I downloaded an app from the Google play store called "Samsung band selection", open the app and go into launch band selection and select LTE ALL. This basically overrides Verizon's "network mode" in the settings, and gives you the option of staying away from their horrible 5G!!
Upgraded to s21, bh so far no issues! As far as the speed
Yup, same here. Still adjusting though. I loved my Pixel 3 too much. Wish the Pixel 6 would be out soon.
S209 issues?
