Does corrosion make them not effective?

I recently pulled a galvanized ground rod (a secondary power panel ground).

In the 2' to 3' below ground section, more than half the rod was gone. This was in less than 10 years. A few more years and it would have separated. Yes, I would say it was definitely not effective.
