We have three people on staff who are competent to admin a server, although only one is tasked with that full time. We feel its much more advantageous to control everything in house. A few advantages off the top of my head: work is done on our schedual; the techs not only understand what they have to do but also why; when planning new projects is good to have people around with a very deep understanding of the hardware/software that it will be running on; lastly an internal tech has a much greater interest in using our resources most efficiently than one who works for a hosting company and would love to sell/lease us additional hardware.
