Pros
The corporate culture is one of teamwork and mentoring. There is a wealth of experience and knowledge throughout Orasi, so no matter what kind of project you are working on there is always someone who is willing and able to help. I was mentored before becoming a manager, and I now find the senior management to be of the same mentoring mindset.
I have had ample opportunities to grow professionally at Orasi. The company provides reasonable support and training to help advance your career, however they expect employees to take ownership for their professional development and to let management know when they need assistance. I have done this a few times and have always been provided what I needed. As a result I have received 2 certifications and am working on a 3rd.
The motto "work hard, play hard" also aptly describes the corporate culture of Orasi. I find the work here to be both challenging and satisfying. Hard work and dedication are rewarded both monetarily (in terms of salary and bonuses) and in perks such as Club Trips, company parties, etc. However let me just address the review that stated people have to be "big drinkers" in order to get hired at Orasi - what a load of garbage! I am a minimal drinker and several of my coworkers don't drink at all, and we all love Orasi!
CEO Nick Kavadellas, calls Orasi a "family business" because he considers all the employees his family, and he treats us as such. I have never met a bigger hearted man. If there is anything he can do for his employees he does it!
Overall, it's a great company and I am very happy here!
Cons
Because of the consultative nature of the business, most employees have little control over the types of projects on which they work. Management does take employees' desires into consideration but ultimately Orasi has to do what's best for the customer and that can mean you get assigned to projects you don't enjoy or aren't as challenging as you'd like. But on balance I have found my projects over the last 5 years to be enjoyable and challenging.
