There's a presumption that things are being hidden from JW members, but what is the gain from it? Most Christian leaders/experts don't do anything unless they gain, financially, and/or in the "long term" holding a position of power over others.
There’s no such JW positions. No one gets elected, paid, receive a home/car, and their positions are temporary. Every baptized witness, even a window washer, can be an Elder, a Congregation Overseer, a Circuit/District Servant, or Servant on the Society Governing Board. None are permanent/guaranteed positions, and sitting on the Governing Board is temporary, with a 2-bedroom apartment, and no pay. Nobody calls you Father, Pastor, Rabbi, or term other than Brother/Sister. With a several Kingdom Halls built a day, each holding 1-4 congregations of 200 publishers each, with their own elders, anyone can become a servant, and if they do, they will work hard with no reward. At least now until after Armageddon.
