In my own POV, being transparent is tantamount to not being able to keep secrets. That is a bad thing, especially when it's a top-secret stuff you're entrusted with.

The negative connotations are: Being able to see through something or someone. Nothing between the ears, only light passing through. Usually meaning a person who lacks character. Being able to see through a lie to view deception. A shallow person. No subtlety. Thin-skinned.

I don't see that the word should have any negative connotation at all, unless you mean that a person who is trying either to deceive or to appear clever/witty/intelligent/educated/refined/whatever, is not succeeding at it because you can see right through their attempt to deceive or impress. Even that is not negative, really, just perceptive LOL

Some one tries to be something they are not is transparent to some one who sees through their disguise. Some people would call them a phony-- this is the negative.
