But there are gains too. The custom framework is probably much smaller and less complex, easier to know 100% of. It can be stepped through in the debugger. It's much easier to change and add features that your company needs, there's no outside bureaucracy to get in the way.
I disagree you're inventing your own framework too, there is a distinction to be made between libraries and frameworks. Just because I'm not using a framework doesn't mean I'm reinventing it, I could be using something like knockoutjs instead, or even postbacks.

- spookthesunset 7y agoMark my words, you’ll be spending the rest of your days poorly reinventing what was already done in a real framework. I’ve seen what comes of these “I don’t want to use a bloated framework” shops and it is never pretty. The second the people who eschew mainstream frameworks leave, the devs who are still are around will quickly rebuild around a real framework.
