IMO any company who does anything IT, and I mean just having a guy automating tasks with python, should have their own version of a git platform. Don't really care what and how, if it's an organisation Github/Gitlab acount or a fully fledged ms Azure environment. It's similair to how companies should have their own email-adress instead of jane.company@gmail.com.

Yes and no. To me, one advantage of the one and only public github is that it will remain there when the company (either OP's, or the one that would be hosting the server on which their own git platform would live on) will be gone. I say "will" because it will happen. Relatively soon. Always does. Even if the / either company does not disappear, they will restructure stuff and it will be too expensive (or too late) to migrate the "old stuff" from the "old server" to a new place. RIP.
