WorkManager retry not working

I have a WorkManager with custom backoff policy. But this does not work.

Enque the Worker

public void startWorker() {
    Constraints constraints = new Constraints.Builder()
        .setRequiredNetworkType(NetworkType.CONNECTED)
        .build();
         Log.i("WorkManager", "starting workmanager");

        OneTimeWorkRequest work = new OneTimeWorkRequest.Builder(UploadWorker.class)
                .setInitialDelay(5, TimeUnit.SECONDS)
                .setConstraints(constraints)
                .setBackoffCriteria(BackoffPolicy.LINEAR, WorkRequest.MIN_BACKOFF_MILLIS, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS) // Custom retry not working
            .build();

    WorkManager.getInstance().enqueue(work);
}

Worker

public class UploadWorker extends Worker {

    @Override
    public Worker.Result doWork() {

        // Do the work here--in this case, compress the stored images.
        // In this example no parameters are passed; the task is
        // assumed to be "compress the whole library."
        Log.i("WorkManager", "do some stuff " + getId());

        // Indicate success or failure with your return value:
        return Result.RETRY;

        // (Returning RETRY tells WorkManager to try this task again
        // later; FAILURE says not to try again.)
    }
}

Some logs of the tests

I'm using the verion 1.0.0-alpha07 of work-runtime.

Is this a Bug or am I missing something?
