Pics aren't loading. It sounds like the installers had no clue how to nail to exsisting ceiling joists and probably just nailed it with Brad nails to the sheetrock. Brad nails would work but they have to hit on the exsisting structure, After they fixed the sag in the ceiling. And if they glued the new ceiling, don't let them back on the job. Shortcutting your job now shows what the rest of the job will be like.

The pictures look like shit, but it looks like they attached small blocks of 2x4 to the ceiling (hopefully to the joists, but who tf knows), and then either screwed nailed or glued the drywall to the small blocks. Why tf you wouldn’t just use a furring strip, idk
