That's not bad for the cheap plan. Even the slow mode is fast enough for video conferencing and doing basic remote work. They still have a separate unlimited plan for anyone who needs more.

They explicitly say video streaming will be "limited" aka it won't work like you want it to
I haven't done a video call on it but it does work for youtube. It's best to pause a video at the start but it buffers and plays just fine. Blocky but certainly watchable.
Zoom works in 500kbps environments in my experience.
You won't be in crispy 720p or 1080p, but you can still talk to other people.
If the data speed is sufficient but they’re intentionally throttling video you could maybe get around it a VPN.
