I would consider The Gulen Movement to be very "shady" about its specific beliefs. While it does appear to emphasize a more modern worldview for Islam, it's not entirely secular either. It could be seen as a gradualist Islamist movement within Turkey, and among Turkish diaspora. Again, it's too early to tell.
And Erdogan was slowly but surely removing secular politicians from government as well as threatening to put journalists in prison for criticizing the government.
