I think I know why Weyland was hiding. The purpose of the mission was his own selfish quest for immortality, perhaps something the rest of the crew (the scientists) would not be thrilled about if it was disclosed. There may be better explanations.
Vickers may have had a different motivation - obtaining advanced technology.
