I have this overachieving coworker and we have the same job functions. My production rate is good, always meet deadlines/goals, and my reviews are always excellent.

This person constantly messages me asking what I am doing at different times of the day or complaining that my rates are slow or my work not as good as theirs.

I have brought it up to another person at work to have another point of view who suggested it was inappropriate to be on my back all the time, criticizing or being pushy about my work. Would appreciate any suggestions as what to with my situation.

Though it sounds as though you are confident you are in good standing, check in with your manager if you have any doubt. Upon further prodding from your coworker, invite them to take up your perceived slipshod work with your manager.

"I'm sorry you feel that way. It is within your rights to address this with [manager name]. Good day."

Would appreciate any suggestions as what to with my situation.

Given that this person is not your boss, and that your reviews are already excellent and satisfactory, I say that you can safely ignore the provocations and pushy remarks from this coworker.

Keep on with your good work and meeting your deadlines and you will be fine.

Joe suggested in comments that you could block this person if the remarks and messages are too insistent. This could help stop the messages, but one downside is that this person will not be able to reach out to you the moment they actually have a work-related topic to discuss.

If these remarks and messages ever start to affect your productivity, consider documenting them and bringing this up to your boss and telling them that it is harming your productivity.
