I was mentoring someone who got feedback that their high standards made them difficult to work with. They thought the feedback was bad since it implied lowering their standards was good.

I pointed out the issue is making it obvious to others they don’t meet your work standards.

Telling or implying to people that the work they did is poor and you could have done it better is counterproductive.

It doesn’t make them work harder or better. It just makes them resent you. Now you have two problems.
