[JENKINS-49676] Downstream jobs aren't triggered when upstream jobs take long time to finish execution

I have an upstream job that manages databases related tasks, the time this job takes to complete varies each time its being built. However, when this job takes less than an hour it triggers downstream jobs otherwise it doesn't, it just marks the build as successful and it sends an email but it doesn't trigger the downstream job.
