And it's Verizon branded

The phone seems to work fine with my MTN SiM
but the network connection switch is greyed out.

I can only use automatic at the moment. There's no option to switch to either 5G or 4G manually.

Is there a chance that it's verizon unlocked but it wasn't done properly?

No. It's a Verizon unlocked phone. Try downloading "5g Switch - Force 5G Only" from the Play store.
Once opened click your android type and select the network type. It may do the trick.
