Similar story here. We're trying to cut down the number of servers at work. I looked into suggesting a company-wide move to Git followed by moving our repositories to Github. Right now, I'm the only one on Git.

Then I realized that I'm using 40 repositories. One of those is for reports. Each report should really be in its own repository. Splitting reports would add another 40 repositories.

So we're looking at $200/month just for my repositories. Throw in what the rest of the company would need, and it is cheaper just to keep doing it ourselves.

There certainly are companies for whom paid Github hosting makes sense--the Github guys are not idiots and if no one was buying they surely would have adjusted things already. I just am having trouble figuring out who those companies might be.
