Parts of its source code are viewable and reviewable, associated with key cryptographic functions. Much of what PGP builds is structure around that, and most of that isn't open in any sense of the word.
Phil Zimmerman (who's long since left the building) does understand the value of source review, and the team who supported PGP continued that legacy. But it was quite limited in scope.
That said, PGP also did work with other implementations, including GPG, to resolve compatibility issues -- I'm aware of a few of those personally myself.
