There Are Two Kinds of Feedback
Constructive feedback is the kind of feedback almost everybody wants, but not everybody gets. Constructive feedback is first and foremost helpful. It identifies a problem and provides a useful solution.
Unhelpful feedback focuses on factors that are outside the person’s control. It is based on personal and at times impractical prejudices. It does not hold any value for the person receiving it.
