You are not returning a Promise from orderEmployees.

printEmployees: async(company) => {
  var employees = await self.orderEmployees(company);

orderEmployees: (companyID) => {
  return User.find({company:companyID})
 .exec()
 .then((employees) => {
   // FIRST CONSOLE.LOG
   console.log(employees);
   return employees;
 })
 .catch((err) => {
   return 'error occured';
 });
},
