I have not used powershell so I can't vouch for it. It is mainly because I couldn't find simple tutorials regarding them. Unix shell on the other hand is dead simple to use. However I get all icky if I have to use them on scripts. The outputs are always raw and never structured so it feels like a hackjob everytime. It also leads way to a different kind of vulnerabilities from incorrect parsing of outputs. I think this is the part where powershell from what I heard comes off as superior. The output is structured and you can work straight with the results.

As far as verbosity, its a mixed bag for me. It makes it easy to read at a glance with minimal mental parsing but at the same time seems such an incorrect fit for a shell where it is optimal to have it under a screen line. You can equate it to trying to write a rant on twitter.
