There are some errors in your `org-agenda-filter-preset':
1. You should not quote this list, because the entire structure of
`org-agenda-custom-commands' is already quoted.
2. Format of `org-agenda-filter-preset' (C-h v
org-agenda-filter-preset RET):
,----
| A preset of the tags filter used for secondary agenda filtering.
| This must be a list of strings, each string must be a single tag preceded
| by "+" or "-".
`----
So ("@work" "|" "critical") is wrong format.
3. The preset filter ANDs the tags together and as far as I am aware
of (our could think of) it is not possible to OR tags together.
However, I wonder why you would like to set the preset-filter: The
tags-todo query already selects only tasks that are either tagged
@work or critical?
