Security of account recovery codes

Description

Many web platforms use recovery codes for account restoration (for example: mega.nz).

However, big tech companies (like Google or Apple) do not use recovery codes. User don't get any key, code or password during account creation.

Security value of recovery codes

Is it because of any security vulnerabilities? Or security codes are obsolete, and there is some better approach?

What are advantages and disadvantages of account recovery codes?
