It has potential. But it is better than open source only if you trust all the maintainers in the organization. And previous maintainers who have now left the org.
And only if the codebase is routinely looked over and tested, no part of the codebase gets forgotten and becomes unmaintainable because somebody left the company.
Open source has the added benefit that maintainers typically don't disappear complete from the project overnight because they got a new job/were fired.
