I have aTheorem 2 in my preprint https://arxiv.org/abs/math/0312342"Group Orders That Imply Existence of Nontrivial Normal $p$-Subgroups" with divisibility conditions on $n$shows that guarantee existence of a nontrivialif $p$-subgroup in any group of order$|G| = p^s m$ and $n$$p \nmid \Gamma(m)$ (defined therein), then either $O_p (G) \ne 1$, or $G$ is not solvable.
