Yes, they sure do.
Have I given the impression that I thought full time organizers are a bad thing? I don't - except when the full time organizers are working towards the wrong (i.e. hardcore Leninist) ends.
If anything, IAC/WWP have demonstrated how effective having full-time, paid organizers can be. It's just a shame that they, as an organization supporting unsupportable aims, have them, and so many good organizations don't.
