Well, the ``license.txt``available at the GitHub repository states that any enhancement made to the server must shared back with the community. So, even if you are using an enhanced version internally, you must redistribute it publicly.

Still its not clear that file can compel someone to even reveal what they do internally. Its an empty promise.

Yeah but if, for any reason, your company gets sued because they violated the AGPL license you're probably fucked.
