You may want do consider the extra 'powers' membership of specific groups brings. For example, I've hardly revoked any group membership in the past that serves to give commit access to a repository. Afterall, commit access is usually hardly dangerous: impact is small and inappropriate ones are easily reverted; and it usually helps everyone if someone can make a quick fix for something they ran into because they still have access. So I would advise to only make an effort to 'clean up' groups that have sufficiently 'dangerous' consequences attached to them.
