I interviewed for a software engineering position at USAA. After seeing the incompetence of the interviewers none of the nonsense they do surprises me.

They at least used to, but I'm not sure they still do.
(And when they did, I was able to copy the key into a MFA app of my choice.)
But now as an end-user, it's all built in to their own banking app. I don't use the code from the app though, because I just use my personal 4 digit pin (after entering in my unique password from my password manager).
Yeah I've never worked there, but been a customer since 2005. For many years there, USAA was really cutting edge of tech and highly competent. The system has slowly gotten a little less usable though, but at least it still works most of the time

They had by far the most competent cybersecurity group I've witnessed. Things have changed in a decade maybe.
