It's ugly but code compliant because the EMT doesn't make the box inaccessible.

The cover can be removed and access to the wires is not a question so I believe this is compliant but I don't like it. hahaha
Agree with your comment, wonder if a offset could have worked to get around the box would work, without running afoul of the 360° max bends req.?
